Buried

By Chris Horwood

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

BURIED I'm not sure how to tell you not sure it's even right but paranoid and strong this foe so I'm giving up the fight the blind eyed walls of ignorance I clawed that they might see but the curtain call through fear does fall and sees no depth in me and through my need, a special friend a love of words to share but ignorant mind convinced of crime for which we'd never care yet why so wrong to need a need and trust for friendship free if fair ensure his needs I meet not that extend to me? so I argued my equality but a mind so warped with doubt that in the end it's easier to lose your needs than shout 'cause I'm tired of screaming baby all the verbals wear you down and when you're bruised, resolve you lose to go another round but I couldn't hurt you baby you only wanted to believe you only saw what he could not but your love I've got to leave 'cause the me's been so abused babe all my strength replaced with doubt the "you will" beaten into me and the "I won't" beaten out in the music of the poetry of the words that shape a life you touched on chords he'll never play but it's time to say goodbye 'cause I'm afraid baby Written February 5th, 2002 © on Feb 05 2002 11:45 AM PST   0 • 1
