Stick To Your Guns

by Ironic Allure   Nov 8, 2006


So it is, just like I said it would be,
There's clearly something wrong with you,
But with free will you choose to ignore me,
And here you say you don't need anyone,
Well I know a different story.
Broken hearts and cheap little tarts,
You left your secrets in her fishnet tights,
Misdemeanours are covered with infidelity,
You lost your morals in an alleyway that night.
This time I can't shy away,
This whole thing, well it's just so silly.
How can the truth become a lie,
Just so that it means you're winning?
I don't want apologies,
They guarentee you'll do it all again,
When I'll bet you kind of like it that way.
This accuracy is quite unnerving,
I can see it in your eye,
Late night taxis keep passing you by
But you've got no money,
You call out my name and I fail to respond,
While your conscience pulls you up,
You put on a hard face;
That's all the temptation I need
To stand infront of your control.
This is how the story goes.
You've had one too many.
Everybody wants you for their own.
All you feel is confusion when I stand and smile,
For a little while,
If you move forward you'll kill my pride,
But your arms are around me once again tonight.
It's out of my hands and into my head,
You haven't had a shave so you look a little older,
And your face is like thunder with every breath.
I couldn't stay any longer if I wanted to,
There's this feeling again I don't feel like you do.
You can't remember what this is about,
But the gloves are off and the claws are out,
And I'll laugh when required and touch where you'll feel it,
You reckon you're trendy and I reckon you're pissed,
And you can't remember what it's all about,
But you know there's something wrong tonight,
And I'll swear it's all gonna be alright,
Stop all of a sudden and your eyes meet mine,
They're drained and bloodshot, but I know what they say,
It's all 'Hi, my name is.'

yes. that's actually the end. sgkjf.

    Hmm... an intresting read. Im confused to why itsi n the Life section of the website. But i guess it is a part of life. ANywyas the structure of this kinda threw me of, i dont know but i just felt like it was oging to be long and draging. Maybe if you split it into stanza's it would of helped. But then maybet hats just me. You dont seem to have a pacific rhyme scheme going hear, but i like the flow of it. I like the description that youve used, it workes really well. The vocabulary was great, i abosolotely loved that bit baout the poem. Great description. SO yeah keep writing! xx
