(no subject)
I havent written a poem in quite awhile, but tonight one came out. It is almost more of a letter.Is not ment to be bitter or hurtful at all, so please no one take it that way. But its something that came straight from my heart, and I had to write it down.
Bradburry Meets Iris
There will always be a place for you in my heart.
It's impossible to make it go away completely
After the things we have done together.
We have flown so high
Looking down at the rest of the world
From our lofty perch
And we needed nothing but each other
And maybe a game of Mousetrap
And a few remote control cars.
But I got stale to you,
Like old bread or cheese left out to sit too long.
And now,
It is my job to make this place,
This place for you in my heart, smaller.
It's not only hard to do,
But I almost don't want to.
Once you have poured your heart out so completely
And had the love returned in full measure,
It seems the world is only darkness without it.
But regaurdless,
I must, and I will do my best to
Shrink this portion of my heart.
There will be times when the bottle will tip,
And the sand will pour out,
But you know as well as I that
This can't be stopped completely.
I appologise ahead of time,
And hope you will bear with me while I try
To funnel the colors back into the bottle.
The reason I must endure,
And not just leave it all to the winds,
Is because reguardless of anything else,
You are one of the most important people
In my life,
And I hope to remain in yours.
