Body Lies

by Luke   Apr 27, 2006


Cross the room, I see you wander
Watching, waiting, as you maunder
Your heart beats like a hand grenade
Your voice sings a sweet serenade
As I look, you know I feel you
If you hurt me, I will heal you

This is here, this is the truth
Fighting hard, both nail and tooth
Every spoken word so clear
Every moment holds a tear
All of these sights in my eyes
As I watch your body lies

Every single day we struggle
For each step we take, we stumble

    I really loved this poem my favorite part was 'Every single day we struggle
    For each step we take, we stumble'
    It flowed so well. I thought it was very good! 5/5

    I actually really like this. ^-^

  • I really like this. the thyme is brilliant becasue none of it is forced, or appears to be at any rate. I especially love the last stanza.
