I wish I could sing like Kurt did
promise that I wouldn't break like him
but everyone knows promises are made to be broken
and with this world as it is today,
I know I can't stand it
and i know that I'm a ticking time bomb
I've missed you for so long
Not knowing what you feel, it's tearing me up
I could say i love you-
but then I'd definitely be cracking
murder seems the only way to go
I'm praying for this bullet to land between your eyes
I'd snap, I'd crack, and I'd bang big time baby
just to show you how much I missed you,
how much I loved you,
and how much I knew I had to kill you
In order for me to get a clear mind
Author notes
inspired by the lyrics:
"i like it- im not gonna crack
i miss you- im not gonna crack
i love you- im not gonna crack
i kill you- im not gonna crack"
nirvana
"lithium"
nevermind
i know it could be way better than what it is, but with this psychotic headache pinching my mind, it seems impossible to write anything half-way decent.

ooooo I love it when you write poems inspired by Nirvana!!!! especially Lithium!!! I can't believe I haven't read this poem yet!! what's wrong with me!!! "I'm not gonna crack" though.
Sorry about the psychotic headache.
You still turned out an awesome poem!!!
Just please don't kill anybody right now, I don't have enough money to bail you out!!
Are you sure murder is going to clear your mind or just a strong dose of Advil??
Looks like you've go the whole Curt murder/suicide/death thingy figured out. Why the hell didn't you work the case???
Ha! Great write, as always!!

okay no, this is what happened, the drummer Mr. Grohl [currently the leader of the nasty ass Foo Fighters] was infatuated with Courtney, he wanted her all to himself, and Courtney wanted nothing to do with him, so he did what he knew would hurt her- kill Kurt. See Kurt jumped the fence at the rehab facility he was at, and Grohl went to find him, probably acted like he was going to "hide" Kurt from Courtney- because she was pissed, but no... Grohl got Kurt to his house, started drugging him up with some Heroine, got him to go to the garage, and shot him. Then brought some towels, the shotgun shells, and the rest of the heroine out to make it look like a suicide... and when the memorial service was held for Kurt, Fuck head Grohl didn't show up.
Wonder why!?

"promise that I wouldn't break like him
but everyone knows promises are made to be broken"
love those lines, they flow really well together
the last stanza is my fav
"I'd snap, I'd crack, and I'd bang big time baby
just to show you how much I missed you,
how much I loved you,
and how much I knew I had to kill you
In order for me to get a clear mind"
