hold your breath

Contributed by xXdeadXpoetXx on Monday, 15th January 2007 @ 06:11:06 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems

hold your breath and walk on in
this is where your hell begins
bite your tounge
enjoy the ride
you've got a story by your side
drink the screams
thick as wine
seems to be a bitter brine
grab a friend for whats in store
what lies behind my white front door
lick your lips and take a bite
a sour beginning to a lifelong fight
hold it close and cherish love
cause hate is 20 times as tough
succumb to pain and bite the bullet
give a hug and you'll get through it
here for you like death in graves
every growing moment raves
a beautiful and bitter lie
too bad she cannot find a guy
realize that you don't need
someone to be a humble steed
enjoy the many, enjoy a friend
cause when its over, you flock to them
hold your breath
and grit your teeth
who knows whats lurking underneath
a smile, a laugh, a bitter grin
let out the child you're holding in
drop the knife and drop the bowl
to people is to whom you should crawl
they are there
they're cheap, no blood
the only thing to dry the flood
the pain you feel isn't one for worth
open your heart, your mind. your birth.

This is amazing...
the rhythm is perfect, and you managed to get across everything you wanted to say without making it sound forced. The subject matter is also powerful, and important...
~I LOVE IT~
