Tears and Heat

by Curing the Comon Cliche   Aug 3, 2008


I break, I know
I've been told it's easy
Break down into tears and heat
Random times I break completely

The famous London bridge
Has got nothing on this
These shards fall down so gracefully
Shards too few would miss

The famous Humpty Dumpty
Shattered on the street
But my shards are falling down
In fits of tears and heat

The cliched broken lamp
That you knocked down in the hall
Unlike this cliche here
Hot glue can't fix my fall

But I swear to you I'll win this
The world can't have me beat
Optimistic pessimist
Behind veils of tears and heat

    Hmm. alright.
    so i like this whole optimistic edge that you've decided to go with, obviously. but it's just..idk. the flow got off in a few places and that bugged me ((did you know i am picky??)) and it just isn't your best piece. granted, i love it. but that's because it's a jesse poem and that in itself is an explaination.
