Written December 4, 2005
This was just written in the pain of the moment, right here on this blog.
I need someone, I need someone now.
But that's the wrong kind of thinking, I shouldn't need anyone but me,
Right now I'm not the safest company for myself.
I pick up the phone but there's no one to call.
Tears are coming but I'm going to force them back.
Everyone has got their own life and their own things to deal with.
I sit here miles away from being okay,
Shrouding myself in a fake reality to numb the pain,
To focus everything elsewhere; escapism.
My chest aches but I won't let the tears come.
This will make me stronger, but in what sense?
I feel as though I'm always going to feel lonely,
No one is around long enough to quench this need,
But I shouldn't be dependent on anyone but myself.
I'm sick of lonely feelings, sick of hopelessness,
Is there no one who can help me heal?
*songs I was listening to at the moment:
"Forget It" - Breaking Benjamin
"Rain" - Breaking Benjamin
"The World I Know" - Collective Soul
"Bother" - Corey Taylor (Stone Sour)
"Colorblind" - Counting Crows
"Caught in the Sun" - Course of Nature

awesome poem
love "forget it" by BB
you should listen to inflatable by
Bush. its one of those songs that I had on repeat on itunes for hours and didnt even realize it. just kinda makes you think.
re: the msg you left on my blog. Shhh! ;)
you know, I didnt comment on it originally, but I do want to say I really liked your poem. You definitely have a way with words.
Your poem reminds me of a song actually. "lightning crashes" by live. I cant tell you exactly why it does. but if you listen to the song and read your poem, they match up. Its not so much the lyrics of the song but the melody.
