The Choking Admission

by Renee   Aug 27, 2005


Tell me how things got to be this way
choking on words I'd like to say
your ears are open, I can see
As I'm gasping for -anything- to breathe

The sentence is formed, it clouds my brain
where's the oxygen to guide it through my veins?
I put it all together, my puzzled thoughts
Now lungs are collapsing to the love I once fought.

Tell me it's the same, how I wish that was so
it was better when I put on what I thought was a clever show
you may have seen through it, for clever isn't me
But at least my worries weren't choking me.

It's this damn regret, wrapped around my neck
I played the fool, poisoned truth got the best
Conversations, or is it me? That has gotten all too weird
afraid to mutter words you wouldn't want to hear.

    I love your poetry. Just the way you desribe everything, with twisted words and twisted sentence. So it's lovely, in a dark twisted way.
    For example...

    "The sentence is formed, it clouds my brain
    where's the oxygen to guide it through my veins?
    I put it all together, my puzzled thoughts
    Now lungs are collapsing to the love I once fought."

    It may just be reality but most people wouldn't write it like that, I think it's very unique and creative of you. :-).

    I love the message it delievers, as I'm sure many can relate, the whole 'choking on words I'd like to say' and many other parts. You should never be ashamed of your feelings, for you cannot help but feel them. You're an amazing girl Renee, beautiful, talented, smart, nice and funny. You're wonderful, and you shouldn't hide like you do. I love the Renee I know and I bet everyone, even the people around you, would love the you I know too. :-). I love you hun, take care...okay? EEE> xoxox talk to you later today.

    Love always,
    Mortie.xxxx
