Ahh I looked at the clock at 11:59 p.m. last night, and I was upstairs, all too aware that it was too late to post yesterday. So I sincerely apologize.
I'm incredibly happy right now, but my writing is completely scatter-brained. Hence the title.
Tell me what you meant to say,
And why you didn't say it before,
Why I had to threaten to leave
So you would apologize,
But I can tell when you don't mean it.
Just face it;
You can't tear down my wall
I once offered to destroy for you.
Like I said, I'm really happy, so I don't know where that came from...
Everything's a frightening blur.
Sounds fading,
Birds escaping,
Sand falling
Through your clenched hands.
Waves wash over your
Footsteps
You run into a foggy
Oblivion
That traces your intentions like a
Needle
Cutting through flesh,
Tattooing
Virgin skin, uninked and
Innocent
Like my heart, left and
Broken
By so many, reading the
Signs
Wrong, getting off on the
Subway
Stop before your real
Destination
Forcing yourself to
Catch
Some fresh air, breathing in
Purity
Like a new life, reborn and clean,
Flawless
In a perfectly imperfect world,
Killing
The sky above us.
Releasing
Doves from your calloused hands while
Music
Rings in your ears, but
Somehow
I am still
Trapped
While you can run
Free.
...................................what have I done to myself?
Please break free and come and save me.
Slam the door
Locks clicking
Clocks ticking
Perfectly imperfect
You stand in front of me
Expecting nothing
Anticipating everything
Antonyms
Synonyms
And oxymorons
Clash, bash
Thrown out like trash
Gibberish and words
Stumbled together
Tumble off my tongue
Before I can take them back.
