Paradox So Sweet

by Alex D   Jan 15, 2008


Ive been lost to dismissal
Hit by a heart-seeking missile
Left to return to the dust
Looked upon with disgust
Drowning in everlasting sorrow
Sorrowfully drowning alone
Sadly I rot to a corpse
A corpse I become, forced
To dig my own grave
Unable to be saved
Or perhaps,
Now I think too much
"I don't drink enough,"
And maybe I drink too much
I don't think enough
A Paradox so sweet
Satisfaction or deceit?
Repeat Until we believe
that this is the life that we lead
This is the life that we'll lead
This is regret that you'll keep
So if this is our fate
Lets keep us irate
And have us some fun
Lets Grab us a gun
Stay out all night
And flirt with the fright
Could it be the end? or
could I keep resisting?

    Perfect. I loved it. It was so different from all the poems on this site and it just took me from my thoughs and reality and put me into this alternate world. This piece has to be the one that flowed the best from all the ones I read from you today. Each word fit in perfectly and nothing seemed out of place or forced. The emotions were described naturally and your truly do have a way with words. Well done .. I really enjoyed reading all your pieces today and thank you for your comment on my poem .. it means a lot. *5/5*

    Now I think too much
    "I don't drink enough,"
    And maybe I drink too much
    I don't think enough

    That's my favourite part of the poem, i like how its contradicting itself. The whole poem flows real well with the rhyming used.
