Beautiful Excuse

Contributed by lickalolipop on Thursday, 18th August 2005 @ 05:29:13 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



You're crumpled up words
Thrown onto a fresh sheet of paper,
Smother me, Erase me, Complicate me.
One more hurtful line and you've scratched into me.

The pencil tip falls
Onto this wrinkled excuse of a paradise.
Lead smears and overlays
This beautiful excuse of an entity.

You're twisted up emotions
Dribble vaguely onto this paper,
Hurt smudges and smears
This beautiful excuse of a paradise.

You're crumpled up words
Thrown onto a fresh sheet of paper,
Smother me, Erase me, Complicate me.
One more hurtful line and you've scratched into me
Onto this wrinkled excuse of a paradise.
This beautiful excuse of an entity.

i think my favorite poems are the ones where the poet had no clue as to why or what they're writing. they tend to come from the truest purest most unfliltered side of your creative conciousness. - great poem

It IS the ones that just sneak up on us and need to get out that often speak most strongly to us and those that read them. I think that this is one of those ideas that will sit with people long after they read it. Well done indeed!

Thank you so much guys.
I was really skeptical about posting this one.
Because I didn't know if my emotions were too
all over the place, you know?
Thanks for your guy's input :)
