Take a Breather and Let Me Be Me

Contributed by daydreamer on Monday, 12th May 2003 @ 02:35:00 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

You say I have problems like I need to go get help
You say my drinking is a problem the mistakes to my life
You say it’s the alcohol that holds me down like a bundle of kelp
You say I can’t see things straight that's why I turn to the knife
Its clear you don't know me as well as you thought you did
It’s easy to sit back and make fake analysts of someone
I can’t believe that you think my problems started from when I was a kid
You actually think that my problems need to be let out in the sun
How I wish you could hear how ridiculous you sound
I could quit any one of my so-called “Problems” at any time
If you would just quit trying to kick me to the ground
I am okay and for your troubles I will even give you a dime
Don’t fret over me, I am a big girl and I know what I am getting myself into
But don’t expect me to change because you show such concern
It means nothing to me it just shows you can’t deal with what I do
I have told you time and time again that I can deal with my own mess when will you learn
Just walk away, out of my life if you can’t be happy with me
I don’t need to be brought down by your sorrows
But I can see that time has changed us and its time to let the past be
I guess this is just how are story goes
So I guess this is when we go our separate ways
And say our finally good-byes and depart
But no matter what happens I will remember our days
And you will never leave my heat
You were a good friend who just couldn’t take a chance and live

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
