Description I’m done thinking
Done hoping
Done waiting for the door to open
Because I know you’re not going to be there when it does
I’m through waiting up for you
To hear a phone that never rings
To see a blank and an empty screen
So forget the charade
Leave me away

Continue your fantasy
In your whorish little world
Where you are the only one
Who seems to be important
You may think of me and though I may mean something
It’s not enough
For me to trust
What you really say

Fuck the direction
Things are drifting
Demand perfection
Demand me to be perfect

But you don’t and you know it
You really know why
No future for this empty door frame
And I am sure I know why
So quit pulling my marionette strings
Quit playing the pulsating tune
Leave my heart alone
And let me lock the deadbolt
The dead jolt
Heart flutter
Glass shatter

"Fuck the direction
Things are drifting" - If someone ever asks me what my favorite quote is, I'm gonna say this

I also like the first lines. They are pretty "strong" in my mind.
Great poem!

You and I must really think alike.

It would be a pleasure to sit and chat sometime in the future.

It would be very expanding.

big time. You know that. The world is a big place. Its a shame they cant put all the likeminded people together in some sort of natural order. i bet that would make things easier. everyone i can relate to is wireless at the moment it seems!

And the true misfortune is that the screens we drone in front of don't carry body language.

I speak most of my poems beat style, and they are pretty psychotic.

But yeah.
Some day...
We'll chat.

Wow. That will make me read them differently i think now!
I'd love to be able to listen to them with my ears rather than my fingers!

Well, for the "song" I just updated with...
Listen to Space Oddity if you can by David Bowie.
It might also be called Major Tom.
That's what gave me the inspiration.
