I don't want you anymore,
You've left my heart cut open; sore.
My knees go weak after I'm done seeing,
You standing there with her kissing.
I feel my stomach start hurting.
I'm getting a lump in my throat,
I can't seem to focus.
I dropped the cup holder I was holding,
Warm coffee drowns my snowed on shoes.
And that is when I woke up,
My heart knows what you've done.
But it aches because it also knows,
What I myself had done.
I deserve this.
We blame  society for suppressing us

Yet we are a part of this society

Ironic  isn't it?
A moment of realisation struck me on a road trip and made me laugh

broken windows
and empty hallways
a pale dead moon
in the sky streaked with gray
human kindness is overflowing
and I think it's going to rain today

scarecrows dressed
In the latest styles
frozen smiles to keep love away
human kindness is overflowing
and I think it's going to rain today

lonely
lonely
tin can at my feet
think I'll kick it down the street
that's the way to treat a friend

bright before me
the signs implore me
to help the needy
and show them the way
human kindness is overflowing
and I think it's going to rain today

Judy Collins, to my mind
does the best version of this song
It's on YouTube

I used to listen to it
as a teen and cry

I still do

... on the other side  :P

Money don't grow any greener
The mean streets are getting meaner

Come and get me pretty please
When you find some grow on trees!

Wake up! Smell the Dunkin Donuts!
We're in the Twilight Zone
like robots...

Every cloud is silver lined
Even one that's in your mind

And when you find
fate's shut the door
You'll find a hatchway...

... in the floor!

"stop and smell the what?"

and a nod to Erma Bombeck
"The grass is always greener
over the septic tank"

"Poetry rhymes"
that's what they said.
I tried it a hundred or more times
until my fingers were red.

I tried writing about you -
all the things we've been through.
I made memories into rhymes
but not once did you materialize.

Finally I realized that's not what it's about
poetry is something you can't breath without.

Poetry is making someone else feel
all the **** that you've endured.
No, poetry is not about rhyming
and of that I'm sure.
The rhyme scheme in this is inconsistent.
-
cause loving  is the best part of falling
cause falling is the painful part of waiting
cause waiting is the best part of hoping
and hoping is the painful part of bleeding*
