Change

by Momentary Relapse   Jul 10, 2006


Twisting on the inside
Biting through this pale flesh
Thousands of needles
A pang of regret

Time to die...
To be reborn

Each breath is one for hope
That this might finally end
Tired of being the odd one
While remaining all alone

Time to cry...
To be lonely

The night has become the same
Day after day gone unnoticed
Lost in reverie of death
While only the night counts time

I scream in hate
I cry in pain

A change has come over me
I know this is your fault
All that I do is because of you
You made me what I am

I need to be normal
I need to be fine

All the problems I had
Were nothing compared to now
The night sky a velvet blanket
The change is complete

No longer the same
No longer human
No longer myself...

I am you

    Nice poem!! Sounds like a transformation of one lover, after a pleasant time, into the other one. Given up individuality, own principles because of the love one of them felt, still feels, and suffers from.

    "Day after day gone unnoticed
    Lost in reverie of death"

    This lines express that it is a one-sided love, an unnoticed lover, maybe because of his character. Lost in a reverie of death : a dream about death or maybe the wish to be dead after all.

    You have a very unusual style. I think you wander a bit. I think you try to put to much into one poem. Not trying to hurt ur feeling. Just a couple of hints. I really liked it though.Reminds me of me
