Listening to: My Perogative - Britney Spears
Feeling: shocked
"I find it kind of funny
And I find it kinda sad
That my dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had"
How will you know I'm hurting
If you cannot see my pain?
I wear it on my body
To tell what words cannot explain
I stand in the hot shower
as water runs down my arm
seems like something so innocent
can't cause you any harm
but as I watch it closer
the drops soon turn to red
and soon I'm lying in the tub
my eyes are blank and dead
but my heart continues beating
as the blood pours from my wrist
Never, in my wildest dreams
did I think it would end like this
the water keeps on running
as I lay there all alone
I play back a conversation
I had earlier on the phone
You said you saw me looking sad
You said you thought you'd call
Just to see how I was doing
How I was handling it all
I lied and said that I was fine
(But I swear I was going nuts)
When you asked if I was sure
My eyes wandered to my cuts
I reassured you I was alright
And then I said good bye
I never thought it would be the last
But I began to cry
what we had was special
I should have never let it go
But now, for good, it's over
And my wrist is all I have to show
To show the pain that I went thru
emotions running dry
Cause I think I'm still in love with you
I realize as I die
My mind comes back to the shower
some one's banging on the door
I roll myself out of the tub
onto the bathroom floor
He screams "Get out! You've been in there
Plenty long enough!"
If only he knew those little things
were what made my life so rough
You tried to talk to me
and tell me everything would be okay
But you never knew for sure
It was just something you thought you'd say
So now I'm here, on the floor
Thinking thoughts of you
Thinking of how much life's a bitch
and all the shit it's put me through
I never really wanted
to die an early death
But out of all my choices
it was the only one left
I just wanted things to change for me
to be something better than now
but I never knew when or where
what, or even how
you say you truly cared for me
looks like you were the only one
but it doesn't even matter
because now my life is done.
*linds
no wayy
thas really good!!
but i like those kinda poems
and i like the way you wrote it
the style and all or w/e
That was very good. Sad, but good.
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had"
That's a lyic from the song "Mad World"... It's on the Donnie Darko soundtrack.
peace.
