Description Just wreck me already
you ambiguity.
Just lay me out amongst the reeds
and callus my core.
Your lips could sting my soul
with words of absolution
but it’s easier to passively ignore.
Tell me, was I ever something more
than emotion on your mind?
strain on your strings?
Perhaps you found some solace in a love so blind
that it could stand alone, without your time
just as I cling to ghosts
and crutch old photographs.
Hold my hand.
Your fading stare
so cold and bare
stains true until my heart falls silent.
Lay down with me
amongst the reeds
until my beat is violent.

This is beautiful, Brian is right about the rhythm it flows well. As for the content I enjoyed this most sad but perfect.

Whoa. I really like the rhythm to this. The content sort of makes me sad, but I like the fancy words.

Thanks. I was driving, and decided to write a poem in my head to entertain myself. Later I wrote it out on our gas receipt.
