The very best of me.

by Yakari Gabriel   Apr 9, 2010


I gave you the best
Of the worst lies
Wrapped neatly
in the arms of the truth
Along with the most
Brutal honesty
yet you considered me
a Hypocrite

I gave you
The fear within
my nightmares
Sprinkled with
the hope I found in my
most amazing dreams
Yet you say I'm hidden

I gave you
The colors
that lay behind my
grey rainbow
With it a touch
of fairydust to make
you believe
there was a certain
beauty to all that
seems rare
Yet you say I'm a disbeliever

I gave you
The most innocent
Thoughts written
on a wall of
dark emotions
Yet you say
there is no sincerity in my soul

I Gave you
even a piece of my selfishness
I shared with you
what was only mine
yet I am a selfish person
in your eyes

I gave you the very best
Within the worst of me
Yet you claim
I gave you
- Nothing.

    This is full of powerful emotions! It just seems like you needed to release these feelings metaphorically.

    *I loved this stanza :] It's very well written and says so much to me. I love how you explained everything and had so much details in each stanza. I could tell this was a personal piece with a lot of bulild up and surpessed emotions. I loved the flow of the piece and how everything came together at the end. A very lovely piece. One of your best I'd have to say. :] Nik*
