"behinde" poems
No Lover saith, I love, nor any other Can judge a perfect Lover; Hee thinkes that else none can, nor will agree That any loves but hee; I cannot say I'lov'd. for who can say Hee was kill'd yesterday? Lover withh excesse of heat, more yong than old, Death kills with too much cold; Wee dye but once, and who lov'd last did die, Hee that saith twice, doth lye: For though hee seeme to move, and stirre a while, It doth the sense beguile. Such life is like the light which bideth yet When the lights life is set, Or like the heat, which fire in solid matter Leave behinde, two houres after. Once I lov's and dy'd; and am now become Mine Epitaph and Tombe. Here dead men speake their last, and so do I; Love-slaine, loe, here I lye.

John Donne - The Paradox
No Lover saith, I love, nor any other Can judge a perfect Lover; Hee thinkes that else none can, nor will agree That any loves but hee; I cannot say I’lov’d. for who can say Hee was kill’d yesterday? Lover withh excesse of heat, more yong than old, Death kills with too much cold; Wee dye but once, and who lov’d last did die, Hee that saith twice, doth lye: For though hee seeme to move, and stirre a while, It doth the sense beguile. Such life is like the light which bideth yet When the lights life is set, Or like the heat, which fire in solid matter Leave behinde, two houres after. Once I lov’s and dy’d; and am now become Mine Epitaph and Tombe. Here dead men speake their last, and so do I; Love-slaine, loe, here I lye.

The Paradox
You've done it, gone in the ways and mistook my apathy for empathy. When have I ever shown a range of emotion like the arch of a rainbow? Instead,  blending into the background in shades of dark, dusty hues. My lackadaisical whims are nothing compared to the logic behinde string theory, or was it a theory based on my lack of range in emotions. I could be wrong but then again, I am an apathetic person. So what do I know?

Apathy
I remember that bitter cold winter night you i sat by the fire crying.you didn't even stop to look back one last time.for me all hope was gone love had left its scar on my heart. As the years past i found someone else who loved me.he taught me how to love again showing me a whole new world.he always said your lost was his gain.you become a painful memory best forgotten about. You said it was us againist the world promise were made but never kept.i believed all the lies and storise now i am the fool.the love we had was bitter and sour. You strom into my life again as if nothing has happen.asking me leave this happen life behinde and come with you.you'll never love me as i love you. You will stay with me for a while and you'll break my heart again.how could you do this to me just when i am happy.my place is here were i will be happy

how could you do this
What if you let go and fall through Will you watch me fall apart? What consumes me Makes me bleed You can see these feelings,looking through the glass. And tell me,How do you hide the shame The crowded streets seem so quiet You dont have to try then you won't have to feel How can you see,Why I hide behinde these walls it's all i've got,memories left broke,scars never disapear Afraid the days behinde me will break me,Afraid to fight. Hide behinde my walls Maybe nevers,Something more than mistakes,Tell me who i'm not. Live life,like it's all you've got!
