Belong With Me, Poems, and a Sea

by Curing the Comon Cliche   Apr 9, 2008


When the fairy tale's gone
Cause I don't believe
Broken hearts not what I want
A hug is what I need

Need a birds-eye-view
But I'm down below
I hold on to your hand
Wait for you to let go

I would write a poem
Seas and oceans long
If I really thought
It would make me belong

If I could belong
Or if you belonged with me
Those thoughts are long lost
They got lost at sea

If it could change things
I'd write it all down
Drown myself in my sea of poems
Get lost just to get found

I'll never be with you
You don't belong with me
No poems can ever change that
I'm already lost at sea

Last shred of hope
Your hand in mine
Feel like I'm flying
Fingers intertwined

For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been. ~ John Greenleaf Whittier

    ~Get lost just to get found~
    i think every1 does that. my favorite line out of the whole poem! but i also luv the quote at the bottem, it's 1 that i always go by, just like "u'll never know untill u try" their a little over used but still very true. well, great poem, job well done. the flow was beautiful and it kept me reading. 5/5

    Honestly, an amazing poem. it's very bittersweet, which doesn't surprise me. :P

    I would write a poem
    Seas and oceans long
    If I really thought
    It would make me belong

    ^ we all belong in some way or another. the ocean saves no one. neither do poems...you belong jesse...maybe not where you want..but you belong.
    When the fairy tale's gone
    Cause I don't believe
    Broken hearts not what I want
    A hug is what I need

    ^ funny how we never get what we need...never get what we want. i'm sorry, jesse.

    Need a birds-eye-view
    But I'm down below
    I hold on to your hand
    Wait for you to let go

    ^ see through her eyes if you want a bird's eye view. maybe you'll see yourself if you look through those eyes...

    If I could belong
    Or if you belonged with me
    Those thoughts are long lost
    They got lost at sea

    ^ :S i'm getting seasick. jk jk. very nice stanza..

    If it could change things
    I'd write it all down
    Drown myself in my sea of poems
    Get lost just to get found

    ^ this last line is definitely one of the best lines i've heard in a long time..

    Last shred of hope
    Your hand in mine
    Feel like I'm flying
    Fingers intertwined

    ^ idk. maybe you listened to me when i said there was hope. maybe you pulled it out of your own head...either way, a beautiful finish to a beautiful poem.
