Boomerang







I知 sick of writing about you

The same old boring poems
scribbled angrily on
matted pulp


I知 sick of crying over you

Tears bled
by self-induced pain
dehydrates my heart


I知 sick of going back to you

Not this time --
my imbalance will now
embrace the slandered
security of solitude


I知 sick of being without you

Please baby --
hurt me once more
for old time痴 sake

In a list

    I think most of us would rather stay in the pain we know and are used to, then let ourselves be vulnerable to something new. Change is soooo hard. I like the 'realness' of your writing. Best wishes and thank you for entering.

    I would just like to go on record by saying that's twisted. I understand that way of thinking but it's more or less just having to let go of what's in the end bad for you. As opposed to holding on to all of the good times you had.

        because we've gotten used to the pain...that's why it feels so normal. That's what happens when the real does come along and it is so perfect we create chaos just to mix it up a little to feel normal. It's a viscious cycle. I really enjoy your work...I've added you as a fav. and look forward to reding more.

    I've felt like this a few times...it's hell, and hell is repeating the same old bullshit for the same old reasons. It's never moving forward towards warmth, just stuck in gray cement and bubblegum. The reason why I love what you write is because it's as if you are here in front of me, telling me like it is. THAT is the key to connecting Love, Lane

    I just love your stuff, you take emotions I always over describe and make them succinct and to the point. Sometimes I feel you are writing from my heart When I read your writes I feel I have gotten something off my chest. This one is no different. It is wonderful and not boring and continuously brilliant. You manage to fit so much into so few words.
    Love this part,

    "Not this time --
    my imbalance will now
    embrace the slandered
    security of solitude"

    And also the ending

    "Please baby --
    hurt me once more
    for old time’s sake"
    Wonderfully penned.
