I...Dont...know

by Kurt   Dec 17, 2005


Stars glisten above my head
Your eyes glitter with love
My heart burns with jealousy
Knowing we are just friends

You confess all youve felt
I hold you close with strength
Never wanting to let go
Letting all of your tears flow

In my room I lie alone
With feelings of loneliness
Comforting me
Like jagged rocks

At school I joke
I play around
Youd never think
That Id get down

The wind gently brushes us
Your hair crosses your face
You start move it all
Saying how you hate fall

Goldenrod crests the mountains high
Just as I let out a cheerless sigh
Starved so long from this place
I yearn for the wind upon my face

Love is less like fire
Than less like wind
Raging in the storm of passion
Caressing in the times of need

Dear friend of the fire
Dear love of the dark
Dear depression and sadness
Let live the long caged bird

Every time you look on me
Each time I look away
Each stab and twist I feel
Brings me closer still

People tease and laugh of course
When they hear the Poets choice
Writing of love and sadness breeds
Wretched pain and jealousy

Darkness betrayed me
Light slowly burned away
Somewhere left in between
In this somewhat hazy gray

Mists of sadness shroud my heart
Cloaking me in solitude
Dragging me down again
Into lifeless resistance

Ive fought this war
A hundred times
If left to me
A hundred more

I cant give up
Or lose today
For there is what
I want to say

Oh Brittany I do love you
I would hold you still
For what you mean to me
A truth I cannot spill

Lie close to me and hear me sob
Of lifeless times alone
Listen to my heartthrob
Much of this has come and gone

Easier to quit
To just give in
Who would know
If I dont win

Silence settles over me
My fingers rest at last
Released allowed to be free
Burned so young, done so fast
