And every feeling will disappear
When this syringe penetrates the skin
I want to say good-bye to these tears
Drain and take away all of my fears
Knowing and Acknowledging,
Two different things
Kisses with lips
Words left to sink in
Never following
Always dragging my feet
Take me away
Remove all of my pain
'Ignorance is Bliss' they say
And I get the feeling
That's all right
I just want
Every feeling to disappear
Say good-bye to every fear
Take away all of these fears

This is fantastic. I can see the Green Day vibe running straight through this poem.
"Take me away
Remove all of my pain
'Ignorance is Bliss' they say
And I get the feeling
That's all right
I just want
Every feeling to disappear
Say good-bye to every fear
Take away all of these fears"
I love this stanza, the very last little bit about fear. It is exactly how Green Day portray the song 'Give Me Novacaine,' saying that this drug can just take you another place....
Fantastic Poem, good write, Good Luck in the contest.

im glad you liked the poem... but actually the last line was a typo- it was supposed to be tears instead of fears- but if you like it better as is, then that's great!
