i used to dream of tomorrow, too

dear broken soul,
 
    i looked down that day just to see you staring back up. your emerald eyes glimmered in the autumn sun like they never had before. i could see so much pain laced within your flawless irises and yet that drop of hope rested carefully between your saccharine lips. and when you spoke to me, it was a melodic pleasure i could not find elsewhere, and when you cried, it was a harmony to my calming whispers. we were so beautiful.

 

    and when i felt your vivacity crack within my arms, i could not help but cry too.

 

    and when your throat ached and your eyes we're tired, you told me your hearts true desire. you showed me the world you hid from mine deep within yourself. you told me you wanted to die.

 

now how am i supposed to stay alive?

 

 

forever,

me

    to be honest gelica, i like it. i think the fact that there is very little structure emphasises the poems meanings. my favourite part is the very end where the is a large gap between the last line and the comment section. it just emphasises that last line to perfection. very well done. if i could give you applause i would give you the maximum!!!

      Thank you very much c:

      something i really hate is conformed poetry with defined structure. I like to write how my mind thinks, and frankly, its just messy. i am very glad you enjoyed this =] all of my work is based off true events.
