For you I won't condone

by cac123   Apr 13, 2005


I lie beneath the surface,
numb to what i feel,
my heart relentlessly screams,
too close to what is real

Forced to move closer,
to the edge with each lie,
I'm looking down and shouting,
this force i must defy,

With all my might i push,
In my mind I'm pushing you down,
Flailing fists as if it will help,
kicking you on the ground,

SHUT UP! i say to nothing,
I kick and scream and fight,
But even so you smile at me,
as if you are always right,

I want that stupid grin smacked away,
cuz i know its all your fault,
Now I'm closer to the edge,
and i continue my assault,

My lies are because of you,
i have to cover up your mistakes,
because of you i have to be aware,
of every move i make,

No one knows of the weight i carry,
and so they assume their right,
but they don't know the real reasons,
I stay up the whole night,

I wish somebody would understand,
but no, I'm all alone,
so f**k you for doing this to me,
For you i wont condone,

And so I shout my lungs out,
until they dry and bleed,
just so you get the message,
no matter how you plead,

You permanently f**ked my life up,
and no matter what i do,
I'm paying the price for your actions,
but this is nothing new..

    Liked the idea,.. good imagery,.. fighting someone to no avail,.. and i assume you dont truly mean fighting,.. just resisting i guess u could say.. i have no problems with this piece besides a few spelling corrections; the minor things.. good job, the whole time the flow was good but at times id notice something you did that made it that much better.. the 6th stanza is an example of such.. pZ out..

    "they assume their right" Their should be they're

    You shouldn't use short hand words like "cuz" as that can deter people from reading your poems. Some figure (including me) that if you don't take it seriously they shouldn't either.

    Ok that's out of the way....minor details..;) I really liked this....very powerful and it flowed so nicely. Hope all is well....take care...
