Description i am bloated
on a Monday morning
(mind, flesh, protruding stomach)
i have sores growing
aching
throat dry, raw
begging for the comfort of
cool water (being kept down)
declaration of love
swarms and makes me feel light headed
(heart or stomach?)
it is repeated in my mind
when my strategic planning is all i can think of
(count the steps on the tile)
observe the color of the hideous, daunting wallpaper(pink:floral)
the distance from my mouth to the bowl
(to your lips)
you are now inside (i refuse to purge you)
rub my back, it aches so
(i am breaking)

i am sorry about so much (i wish i had an excuse, but all i got is
"because i can")
i cannot honestly tell you the color of your eyes
the colors melt together and i forget how to form words in my mouth, your eyes make no sense
(or I am too selfish, so say you know the color of mine)
but i do know the freckles on your nose
(i could wake you with that knowledge,
but i cannot pull off the pseudo-sweetness)
you will roll over in annoyance and i will be crushed (my heart breaks like i am 13)
i am nervous you tell me,
only because you are far too beautiful for me
(and it shows)


(and you know)

Love is both a blessing and a curse, it makes you both weak and strong, both happy and sad, both secure and nervous. Weird isn't it?
To tell him what colour his eye's are may be cute but it's really just a gesture that may or may not have meaning and weight. But his current girl-friend actually writes poetry about him, if that doesn't mean something I don't know what does.
Anyway, the poem...
It's good. Emotional. Nice flow too.

wow. That's sad, but you can feel the emotion here. Awww..... I makes me want to hug you and tell you that you ARE beautiful, there's a reason he loves you and she's not there anymore.

oooh... thank you so much. Your comment actually made me start tearing up. You're so right, and I know it. Do you ever feel as if your logical/rational side of you is always in constant argument with this crazy/irrational side of you. It's like they are duking it out all the time. I get that way, especially when I am in love. Thank you so much for your comment and your kind words. You are a wonderful and fabulous person.

wow... that almost made me start tearing up. lol thank you and I agree completely about the war of rational vs. irrational, that's what can make poetry so great. I'm glad the comment was good for you.

I just had to comment again. I re-read this and I absolutely adore the part

i cannot honestly tell you the color of your eyes
the colors melt together and i forget how to form words in my mouth, your eyes make no sense
(or I am too selfish, so say you know the color of mine)
but i do know the freckles on your nose


I think it's so personal and from the heart and I understand exactly what this means. Wow. especially....

the colors melt together and i forget how to form words in my mouth, your eyes make no sense
