Inari King For A Couple Of Days
 Age: 37 Gender: Female Posts: 2538 | August 20th, 2006 at 05:07am Once again, I could fit the title into the subject box.
This one's called:
It's A Choice Between Jumping Into Your Arms Or Falling Fifty Thousand Feet.
Neon lights coiled around like a maze of our persistent mistakes,
flickering and indecisive like us between the goodbyes and dial tones.
There are wind touches like blood rushes swarming around my ears and
I'm beginning to suffer from instant vertigo hanging around like this.
When you said you needed me I never thought it would be this way.
I'm perched on my tiptoes on the edge of your bedroom windowsill with
the city stretched out before me like a canvas ready to catch these tears
and I can sense you behind me, hear your whispers over the hails of wind.
"What are you waiting for, honey? Suburbia is waiting for you so jump."
And I don't know if you're breaking your anorexic promises tonight just
so you can get hungry for power or if you're just thirsting to rid this
extra baggage that weighs down our relationship packed in the shape of me.
I'll leave your methods untested because these lips were always meant
to be made as platforms for building stolen kisses and not questions.
It was always fact that I wanted to do anything to make you happy
because you look so out of style when you're squeezing into frowns, darling,
and playing the love-bound ventriliquist's dummy was so much fun until you
started lighting funeral pyres beneath my feet in an attempt to make me dance.
This is tragedy on a leash; catastrophically obediant despite the torment.
Keep trying to prove you're better, sweetheart, these bruises don't hurt anymore.
They're just subtle scars beneath the skin and I've taken to drowning my misery
in tears because I gave up liquor for Lent and forgot to take it back up again. |

 | August 21st, 2006 at 10:14am Wow. Another great work of art. You know what a few lines remind me of? In Bring Me To Life. If you turn off the sound, you wonder why she's at a windowsill. Why she looks down. Just that one frame reminds me of your poem. No wait...other way 'round. Like...a speculative poem or something. I love making up stories from your poems. O_o. Something is so wrong with me... |

In a world of hate and lies and death
I walk along the city streets
Haunted by a shadow of the forsaken
Feared by most, friends to few
Dark and dim and evil
Fangs sharp, ready to bite
Drain every ounce of blood
Pitiless, deathless souls damned to eternity
Life always, hell on earth
Immortal to thier army's of men
Weapons of mass destruction
Evolving into creatures of day and night
They tourture, then kill
Condemned to living hell
Crestfallen, Vampiric Acid |

I sit alone down in my room
My tears are keeping me awake
Till nightmares take me to my doom
I'm drowning in this lake
That I created from my tears
Why can't I be that happy girl, I used to be
Now confroted by her fears
Of a life of hate and pain
This is driving me insane
I don't want to be perfect
In this world of perfection
I just want to be happy
Is that too much to ask for
Why am I mad all the time
Misunderstood and don't know why
Take me away to neverland
Where Happiness never ends
I know its just a silly dream
Its all I have to hope for
Im coming apart at the seams
My red eyes are getting sore
I have nowhere to run
As the clouds roll in
Come cover up the sun
Just another rainy day
This is not my fucking day
If perfections what it takes
Then I will always be
An unhapy broken girl |

And lyrical_gaah52, it's not weird that you make up stories from it.
It's touching that someone actually connects enough with it to do that.
Jinxed and Rejected, cool poems, but please create your own topic to post them.
Thank you. |
