Nothing Fantastic

Jun 28, 2006 13:53

I can't write very well. But I so often have things I need to get out of me... so I try to write... and it doesn't work. I just sit there with pen in hand writing down a few words or thoughts or feelings here and there. But I always end up with a crumbled piece of paper and feelings of furstration. Sometimes I manage to get something out.... but it usually doesn't flow, or it sucks, or it's too cryptic for others to read. Even when I write, I try to hide what I'm trying to get out. I do that in the last "stanza" of what I'm about to post.

This thing I wrote... I won't call it a poem... because I'm not a poet... is about something real that I feel. I fabricated the real life situation a bit to make it a little more romantic I suppose. But all the feelings I put into it aren't a lie. Hopefully you can feel some of my emotions that I tried to evoke. But if not, whatever, because like I said.... I'm no writer.

So... here it is... It's not called anything... because I can't name things... I can't even come up with subject lines half the time for posts... so I usually just stick in catchy lyrics from a song... which is what I will probably do once I'm through with this... When I'm typing I always leave the subject line open, just in case what I type will cause me to think of something fantastic.... it never does... hahaha...

.....................................................

Your eyes, your beautiful eyes
Your smile, captivating smile
Your laugh, your infectious laugh
Your humor, such dry humor
Your voice, calming, comforting voice.

The way, the way you joke with me.
The way you tease me
when Ive said something stupid. again.
The way you look into my being
when you gaze into my eyes.

These amenities, they all share something the same.
Dont you know?
Its you.

How could time pass me by
pass me by so quickly
without me seeing what I miss?
How could I forget so easily
the things I loved about you
when I adored them so much?
Adored them for so so long.

I thought I had learned to guard myself.
Hearts grow stiff after too many losses.
But after all this time, how can you?
How can you still make me feel?
How can you still amaze me?
How can you again, so easily
soften my heart?

Everyone loves happy endings.
But happy endings arent reality.
So Ill bury this, just like I had to before.
It was easier before you said that
said what Id wondered all along.

Your beautiful eyes.
Why did you take them away?
Why didnt you tell me?
I was here, waiting
all along.
