Nothing More Than...

by *Charisma*   Jan 29, 2007


You may be the one I loved
The one I'll forever miss.
But darling we both know,
Nothing will ever come of this.

Nothing more than tears and pain
Of which I've already done.
There's not even a battle here,
So nothing can be won.

Nothing more than broken hearts
Held on by fraying strings.
We're like a garden without seeds.
No fruitage will this bring.

Nothing more than tilled up ground
Left open and exposed.
It'd be like music in our heads,
Yet never written or composed.

Nothing more than a melody
Played only for the pleasure.
We're like two pirates searching,
For some nonexistent treasure.

Nothing more than hopes and dreams
Marked upon a paper
Like water in a boiling pot
It would all end up in vapor.

I can see how we would end
Only able to reminisce
Darling I know how it hurts
But nothing will ever come of this.

*Please rrc this piece for me! Thanks!*

    - There's not even a battle here,
    So nothing can be won. - (great parallel here)

    Yet never written or composed. - (this was a very unique and awesome rhyming word, and it's easy to understand without being too simple)
    - Nothing more than a melody
    Played only for the pleasure.
    We're like two pirates searching,
    For some nonexistent treasure. - (that whole stanza is just amazing imagry...pure talent, and is totally poetic without being cliche at all)
    - Like water in a boiling pot
    It would all end up in vapor. - (this just makes me jealous of your comparisons! :)

    This whole poem is incredible. (I hope this doesn't sound too corny, but) I am honored to actually know the person who wrote this! :)
