Sickened feeling
Covered in dirt and grime
Look at the blood
I've done the crime
Dizzy and naive
I must sit down
Trying to fall on the bed
I land on the ground
Something's wrong
I haven't quite finished falling
Glancing down--There is no floor!
On a surreal plane, someone is calling
"Who?" I call...trying to lie down
Oh no, he's here
I couldn't lie
Especially if he is near
Opening the door
I try to keep my head
Seeing my condition, he seems worried
But I can't figure out anything he's said
Vision is fading
I've lost all hearing capabilities
I can feel--He's holding me
Love is my only disability
Resting in his arms
Crying; my face is already soiled
This moment could've been salvaged
But now is spoiled
It's all my fault
Death is pulling me to his side
I never should've mixed the two:
When love and coricidin collide

I commented on this before but I must comment again. I am keeping my comment that you have a way with words that make the readers see it through their eyes/feelings. The intensity of this poem throughout the whole thing is quiet ovewhelming. One thing I can't help wondering about even though it is completely off subject is that why is the title spelled differently from the last line? Either way this is a great write.
keep up the great writes

dreams are the best huh? though I have read that if you die in a dream, you really do die...not sure where I read that but its something to think about..This poem strikes a couple thoughts...
1) dont you just love those falling dreams??? I LOVE THEM!!!!!!THEY ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!
2)What the "hell" is Coricidin?? I'm thinking its a drug but I'm not sure what kind...
3) DEATH COULD BE A GIRL...hehe thinking about Dogma...the best movie..."god" turns out to be a girl...you should see it, even though it has to do with the catholic religion ::shudders:: but its funny, "Buddy Jesus" hehe

Muy bien mi amiga! I like this one alot. You have a way with words to make the readers think that they are feeling it themselves which I love doing when I read something. Sometimes I wish that I could make my love for ::cough:: you know who from you know where and put some corisidin in with it and maybe everything will be ok but I don't know if that could help me at all. Either way, this is a great write and love the background with the picture.
Keep up the great writes

I think "Listen to me" is addressed to Matt. But I think I just flipped the pronouns to make it... seem more ...appropriate? ...Predicatable?
Look:

but takes everything.

Yes, yes, this poem IS a mix of a love poem and a suicide poem. And they are so freaking addicting!! I think that's what makes them so grrrreat! *feels like Tony the Tiger.* God, I'm weird. And I think you know that all too well. . .
Oh, and I do remember you doing that lovely little narcotic. I wasn't there, but I remember you told me about it. I just most recently went over my limit of fifteen skittles, so I decided to stop. Especially since they do drug testing on crosscountry team... And, plus, I've come to realize that doing drugs and getting drunk and other things like that are just silly little excuses for not wanting to deal with life as it is. Life is hard you little fuckers!! Sorry, that was to all of the druggies out there. I also thing that druggies are very... annoying. You know why they think they're lifes so great and shit? It's that they believe that they can only have fun with drugs and booze. What a lame excuse. And what's worse, is that sooner or later, when something completely wonderful happens to them, they won't be able to be happy about it, or even comprehend it.

Ok, now that you've gone and fixed the spelling, and, not to mention the background... which made things look... erm... X_X <<like that. heh...

Have you even ever done Coricidin? ...I wonder, sometimes, "Scarlett."
Pah, whatever.
Anywhoooz...
...Nice write, dearie! Or does "hon," suit you better, seeing as you're the Southern one here...? ...or at least you wish you were! =P
And there's one little thing I must by nit-picky about, right now, the title is spelled incorrectly. Which, if I remember correctly, I helped you spell!! =P
