We give our last bitter good byes,
And taste the sinues of our pains.
I wallow in sorrow for an eternity,
While braking our bonds and ties,
And in my recesses it rains and rains,
Till I have a depression born of my feternity.

I crumble and twist till I stop you in my thought,
And I hold still waiting for you to be truely gone.
But all the while its your soul that i can not escape,
I run and run but in the end I seem to only be caught
And then I am stuck again in night without dawn,
Where memory violates me with rape.

So I fight it and I win.
I Laugh and sing,
But then you snap back in a moment like whip,
Making my blood run thin,
And I hear memories call back with a ring,
And it's a spear with a barbed tip.

It hurts so much I can't breath.
It feels like a elephant just jumped on my chest.
Right now I am not sure what to think.
I haven't really cried this whole time.
And now here i am writing this stupid poem
Through tears.

dear kettle,
i have decided for you that you can't be this sad anymore :-) no matter that we won't get to read many of your poems...i mean these really sad ones are sometimes so dead on that i'd like to shout "AMEN". but it's just not right to keep feeling like this. can you tell me, is it still the same girl from so long ago?? devon, maybe by now, the person you are missing is only what you've imagined her to be. GO OUT, FIND PEOPLE, HAVE FUN (to excess) AND A FEW DRINKS (but not too many :-) AND REPORT BACK :-))))
(but by the way, the third and fourth stanzas caputre that way i felt perfectly)
(...sorry i didn't see this earlier i was traveling last week and couldn't get to read blogs)
hugs,
pot

HAHAHAHA! Well pot... I will do my best to fulfill your request and I thank you for your concern and complements on my work. I had quite a fire under me when i steamed this one up. As for your question, that all depends on when you are refering to... Alas I seem to go through women like they are going out of style... Or is it me they go through... If so the jokes on them... I have never been in style.;)
Hugs back,
kettle
