Today

by *Sweet as your worst nightmare*   Jul 27, 2006


Todays the day

I say the words

I've longed to say

The hushed tears

Fall down my face.

I know,

I'm wrong...

I've never been right.

I take the chance...

And fall

Good-bye,

Fare well,

So long...

So fake.

I'm always trying,

Yet always failing...

Just jump...

Thats all you say.

Take the chance,

To love

To live

To enjoy

To taste forbidden fruit

To play the outlaws game

To hide your mask...

And be yourself

Life's not worth a thing

If its not given all you've got

    I can totally relate to this poem, sometimes you've got to take chances in life, though sometimes it's hard. I really liked the beginning of it, especially the hushed tears part, and "I've never been right".

    Thanks for your comment on my poem "She Cradles Sadness", I'll take your advice when I write my next poems.

    Good job! 5/5

    Keep writing.

    Interesting layout for this but it worked. You've managed to crama lot of meaning into a few words.
