X Inside Out and Upside Down x

by ..::Angel of your darkness::..   Mar 21, 2006


Isn't it funny how things work out?
Isn't it so god damn hilarious when they don't?
Don't you smile when you see someone happy?
Don't you laugh when you see them choke?

And isn't it strange when we see something normal
And so acceptable when it's so odd
We won't believe each others truth
But we'll believe in such a thing as 'god'

How come this world is so messed up?
And perfect in every way
How can tomorrow not be the same
As the yesterdays before and today

How can we expect the worse to happen?
But are so surprised when it comes
If we know we're going to regret something
Why in the first place let it be done?

And have you noticed how we judge others?
Before we take a look at ourselves
We're the last to listen to a friends cry
And the first to ask for their help

I just feel I'm trapped in a world where I'm free
And I seem to be everyone but me
I'm lost but at the same time I'm found
I'm crowded but no ones around

Everything seems to make so much sense
But I just don't get it at all
I'm standing straight here on the ground
But I feel as if I'm about to fall

The world is moving far too fast
And yet it seems so slow
I plan the future ahead of me
But I don't know when I'll go

And maybe I'm laughing with happiness
But inside I know I'm crying
I'm alive like you all are but then
In the end.... Aren't we all dying?

    Hey i love this poem... i actauly just stumbled upon it again. i had printed it off when i read it the first time like a year ago. anyways i wanted to let you know that i read it when ever i am feeling down... when ever i can not make sense of my mistakes or the reasons why people do what they do. it may not have the answers but at least it reminds me that i'm not the only one who thinks like this.

    really reallly great job i love it!!

    Brilliant.
    it brings out such a perfect point and in such an smoothe way. we're all going to die at some point and it makes no sense why so many of us do such bloody stupid things.
    keep up the good work
    cheers.
