Sitting here with strangers
When I should be with you
Why can't I seem to ever stop
These awful things I do?
Drinking down my worries
Watching others dance
I have to stop and wonder
What happened to my chance?
Showed me what I always wanted
Then took it all away
Standing there ripped wide open
What was I supposed to say?
That inside you hold a beauty
I can see unmarred?
And you are all I covet
If only from afar?
I know your smile like my own
My sweetest, dearest friend
I know your touch in the dark
Rough against soft skin
Through young eyes so ancient
Hiding long dead ages
I look inside at your book
Reading of your pages
Then I stare into the mirror
Compare myself to you
You seem so real and endless
Myself I can see right through
I know that I'm not perfect
That's not it at all
But you could be the one to help me
Catch me when I fall
Wipe my face and make me smile
Then offer me your hand
Hold me up and keep me stong
Please help me to stand
Don't misunderstand me
It's not that I would change
It's just that when I'm with you
I'm simply not the same
I find that I don't need it
The drugs, the pain, my due
In fact when we're alone together
All I need is you
Now I'm telling you, please listen
Hear me and take heed
Every time I think of you
I crack and start to bleed
Still staring at my drink
Mourning our lost romance
That only seemed to happen
In a single glance
So I'm sitting in this bar
And it's tearing me apart
Knowing that you're out there
Bound to break my heart
Finally I'm honest
No longer can I kid
You could never break my heart
You already did

Don't worry I write most of my stuff when I'm P****** and it shows!
You've done a great job of this one and you did it all without puking over your monitor!
I salute you!

This poem rung too true for me...
Especially at the moment the way I feel.
I really enjoyed it, and yes like the previous poster I too write mostly when drunk. And I won't edit when I'm sober cause I'm too strict!!!
Thanks!

Calling this a poem would be an insult. So i'll cut right 2 the chase.
" Masterpeice "
You wouldn't beleive how much i can relate2 this poem. and i love the simplicity of your style and how you put it across and yet capture the thruth of your emotions, as though they were guiding your hand. You are a most excellant writter. *****
