bathed in black
don't i remember those days
when i was just trying to find my way out
of this hole
i've dug myself into
another shattered hope of self respect
how could I fall this far??
[My heart while in its cage, is used to give and not
receive a thing,
But the only funny thing is that I dont know how to give myself advice.]
and all those lost smiles
another molded over beer bottle
i just forgot to throw out
or smash against the pavement
and all those hopes of being beautiful
were such good lies
[Your brain is faulty wiring
the reason for tiring
Keep treating the curse,
Imagine the worst
Systematic, sympathetic
Quite pathetic, apologetic, paramedic
Your heart is prosthetic]
small, simple happiness
i thought happiness was a warm gun
and i think i'm to close to the trigger
not really
i could never do that
i dont care that much
i just want to be happy again
but thats a far off dream
[I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end
But I just want to be happy again.
Until it all falls down,
and where does that leave me?]

Blue October ranks pretty high on my favorite bands list. But that's a different story. I liked how you incorporated another person's words into your own (and gave them credit for it at the end. Major points in my book). It added something, I can't quite put my finger on anything specific, to your poem. Very well done. -R.T
