M's Poetry
Naked, Opened and Undressed
Naked, Opened and Undressed
Have I not been fooled again?
I know I must have
I thought such joy could never end
I thought I would
keep you with me
but oh how you have slipped
and my grasp couldn't hold love
eternally.....
Now I turn a painful red
when people pass me
avert my eyes and drop my head
afraid they might see what I see
what seems to be my destiny....
a grade A failure
and the mirror sings
a morbid theme everytime
I look it's way
I just want the rain to come
to console me, to pour over me
there's nothing like a rainstorm
to wash away the rain
my crying can't be in vain
I want be whole again
but I seem to have lost all meaning
even if it's just briefly
Autumn leaves and butterflies
when winter's due
they all turn weak, they all just die
in multitudes...so invisible
My oh my the wind did turn
I lie awake in bed
I sweat, I toss, I burn
with agony...and this lone emptiness
I feel like every sorrow
every wound you created
is naked, opened and undressed......
