Living In Reverse

by *Charisma*   Dec 27, 2006


It seems my life's living in reverse
Not quite what I had planned
I did all the good stuff first
But it's unraveling through my hands

I had you, but you slipped away
Mine but for just a minute
Tears that fall but only fade
As I go back within it

I can watch it happen again
Feel it overwhelm my soul
But as if it's all pretend
You leave, and I lose control

My foot slams on the gas
The gear is in reverse
Watching our times pass
Good turns to the worst

I can't believe that it's done
That what we had is over and through
I'm living my life in reverse
Just so I can relive the parts with you

(for a contest. rrc)

    Third???
    But then again, i'm biased about your work since your one of my fave poets, lol
    But still, it's amazing, simple words create a deeper poem =)
    I think that makes sense
    Well done
    5/5
