"momma take this mask from me
i just can't wear it anymore."

"momma put my guns to the ground
i just can't shoot them anymore."

"your smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun."

poem time!!!!

hey hey hey!
i feel like posting a poem i just wrote cos my blog is gettin empty...
amd it's a lovey kinda thing jus to show that i do have a romantic side...

so here goes...
it's titled...

inspiration
.
Loving you
from a distance
behind a veil
...all smiles...
.
isn't as hard
as i thought it would be.
.
You gave me
words
gave me
romance.
music.
in those lovesick years.
when you seemed closest.
.
certainty
uncertainty
.
congealed in a heady mix.
.
if all romance is but a compromise,
why must we compromise?
why must we settle for less than perfect?
.
You gave me
peace.
confidence.
and belief still
in myself
and my ablility
.
to be truly glad for you
(oh that cliche)
to be truly glad to see you
live a life
live out all your
ecstacies
and powdered gall.
.
a life
that i was not a part of.
.
and then to find a certain courage
to look away.
.
and so the momentum
in its crotchets and crescendoes;
staccatoes and
passaionate sforzandoes
make the days
tick along into years.
stretch
.
but in those stretching years
love,
that everlasting
fickle bitch.
.
returns moments.
.
when we see again
what all that fuss was about.
.
see you again
behind a screen
your soul
written
streaked in words
in secret.
.
and being inspired
cos i still love you
(and always will)
from a distance.
