Two Stars

by Curing the Comon Cliche   Nov 29, 2008


Sometimes it's hard to know where I'm standing
Sometimes life is a plane and I don't know where I'm landing
Am I the movie star or am I the one bashing?
Plane hit turbulence an hour ago, I swore that we were crashing

This is, my words now there's no regrets
Am I tying you a present or a noose around my neck?
Am I inhaling life or sulfur as I hit the ground?
Are my words loud enough to hear, am I making any sound?

You're staring across the room, am I staring back?
I feel like I'm not breathing, I don't want air back
You and I are holding hands, so are we dancing now?
I float until I sink but I don't think I'll drown.

You're staring, asking me if that's my last excuse
I don't think it is one, but if you want me to choose
I'd rather have two stars then all the fireworks
I'll show you what that means if you won't stop to search

You're whispering to my lips, I think we're kissing now
I forget how to use my words so please don't ask me how
Searching for a map to learn to navigate
Everything I wanted now I have with me.

You're mumbling and turning, I think you're sleeping here
Don't worry love I've got you, you're safe, I'm near
Writing poems on your arms, playing with your hair
I wanted you to know I'm with you. I wanted you to know I care

(for Breanne, Gabby you're mentioned too)

    I felt the whole poem had a beautiful flow to it. The only part I felt I got a little tripped up was "You're staring, asking me if that's my last excuse
    I don't think it is one, but if you want me to choose
    I'd rather have two stars then all the fireworks
    I'll show you what that means if you won't stop to search"

    I would consider revising the wording a little to help it flow like the rest of the poem..... Still got 5/5 from me though!

    Beautifully written. "You're mumbling and turning, I think you're sleeping here
    Don't worry love I've got you, you're safe, I'm near" was my favorite part. I cannot count how many times my fiance has said the same words to me. Thank you for sharing this :) 5/5
