Confessions of the IndescribableA Poem by Everything Happens For A Reason
Is it okay to confess I have no room in this chest Cavity for myself Cause I keep thinking of you And everyone else, lovers old or new What would I do, if I was free to do as I pleased? Free to escape Maybe with you be? And the glint in your eye promised to never send me home? What would we do if we had no restraint No chains, no limitations, no other people standing in our way? Who would we turn to, when it fell apart? Deep down I could see who we would, and it couldnt be eachothers hearts. The one that clings to my spine I'll blame it on that scorching kiss Every time we say our goodbyes But most of all, I'll blame it on, the way your body makes me feel Blame every problem you ever face On me like you did before "we" lost our place I'll keep it real, douse the flames, cause I cant be who that is. I'm writing this, so you can see, who I really am. Noone knows, me least of all, cause we couldnt pass the entrance exam. So I'll tell you this true, even though I'd rather die than admit That I have lots of regrets, more than I could ever permit To explain to tell to push out of me I wonder about people I never got to see. I'll look out the window, and see the colour purple A lift of my lips, a bite of my tongue So I'll walk down the hall, and see your memorised walk I'll be feckless and unknowing, and feel your hands on my hips from behind A shiver as I see the demon has won. And tell me what you see For when I look in the mirror An ugly girl is all the reflection could be And theres nights I dream of you looking deep into my eyes now And telling me you see paradise There will be no mirrors, as we fall from our chains We will both be beauties, in the sea of sin again Those mornings I wake up, with a smile upon my face And I cling to the dreamland, aching to touch your body and feel your embrace
What would I do if I felt your lips and saw the glint in your eye That told me I could wave heaven goodbye? Every time we say our goodbyes I'm writing this, so you can see, who I really am. Noone knows, me least of all, cause we couldnt pass the entrance exam. The taste of my tongue and the graze of your hips I'll start to wonder how things could have been If I didnt send that email, if I hadnt pushed you away from me But really and truly, things are always falling adrift. Feelings of emptiness still never cease to exist I blink at the ceiling in my drunken mist Where I want him to take me, to own me, to change me That I'll be like you, entirely someone elses with secrets to tell The fear is overwhelming that I'll lose sight of myself When really all I want is to be lost inside someone else In each and every way Baby I couldn't handle that, hear me when I say, I'm nothing to love, I'm a scapegoat born and made My fears battle with the sentences constructed, to yell and say but I'll leave you with this; I want to be vindicated, as free as you think I am I need something to complete me after I lost him, I can't keep living this way. The one that clings to my spine Alas, I falter; this confusion cannot go on The one that clings to my spine I'll blame it on that scorching kiss Every time we say our goodbyes But most of all, I'll blame it on, the way your body makes me feel Blame every problem you ever face On me like you did before "we" lost our place I'll keep it real, douse the flames, cause I cant be who that is. I'm writing this, so you can see, who I really am. Noone knows, me least of all, cause we couldnt pass the entrance exam. Cant you see I'm a mess, So don't go worrying about me, I'll fight my way out like I always do Reinvent myself when the time calls for something fun and new hate me for every time I've ever been untrue hate me for every single mistake I made because honey you really wouldnt be the first Hate me for how I could never go back to you. © 2008 Everything Happens For A ReasonReviews
