Best Misconceptions, Broken Puzzles, Busy Street

by Curing the Comon Cliche   Apr 5, 2008


Reading your response
Over again
Write a new poem
Pencil or pen?

Pens are so permanent
Forever and real
Somethings are like that
Somethings that you feel

Pencils are better
They can be erased
Too hard are some feelings
Too hard to be faced

Forget the poem
I want to walk in the rain
No, those aren't tears
The raindrops I blame

Well, those raindrops are screaming
Or is that pretend?
Just like the rainy street
When will it end?

Since when was smiling
A tiring task?
I don't have to answer
If you don't ask

The best misconceptions
The smiles I fake
It's not your fault
Smiles aren't there by mistake

Another broken puzzle piece
That won't fit anywhere
In this world of pretty puzzles
My piece won't make a pair

Write it all out
Before it flies away
Emotions in words
I've got nothing to say

Try to hold on to happy
With nothing to grasp
Hope is something
That slips away fast

Damn, your so close
Lips beg a taste
I'm hugging, arms tighten
Heart beats in haste

What happened to this poem?
It's supposed to be sad
You make me so happy
Good or is it bad?

Happy is a high
Higher to fall
Can't let this high place
Can't get this tall

The greater the distance
The greater the pain
Smiling in a busy street
Walking in the rain

Walking down the street
Feeling kind of lonely
If you aren't to busy
Would you care to join me?

Walk in rain
Too wet to dance
Smiles and sunshine
A second chance?

If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. i'll always be with you ~ Winnie the Pooh

    I want to walk in the rain
    No, those aren't tears
    The raindrops I blame~
    this is my favorite line in the whole poem. ur choice of words and flow is just amazing! and i luv the quote at the bottom, but i think u need 2 read that quote a few more times until u realize it explains u perfectly. u r stronger then u think. 5/5

    God. *cries* wow....you're right. it's so..bittersweet, jesse. it's just....darn you.

    Happy is a high
    Higher to fall
    Can't let this high place
    Can't get this tall

    ^ LOL. that sounds like me, you dork. i love it though.

    Another broken puzzle piece

    ^ mm...pretty puzzles are always more than they seem, jesse. always. no puzzle ever fits together perfectly..there's always a few spaces.

    Well, those raindrops are screaming
    Or is that pretend?
    Just like the rainy street
    When will it end?

    ^ rain...hmm...we never get that here. i can't blame the wet on my face on the rain when it's no there...

    Walk in rain
    Too wet to dance
    Smiles and sunshine
    A second chance?

    ^ the last stanza was definitely the best. i love the rain...but that burst of sunshine is always needed to make you appreciate it. it's like a glimmer of hope..which is what i want to see in you jesse...we all do.

    the quote at the bottome was just....
    great job, jesse.
