The Brattychick

I found a bunch of cheesy poetry while unpacking this evening for your reading pleasure. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.7

It's too frightening to step back into the phonebooth with a tornado blowing around inside of it I can't even hope to grasp a piece of the debris. Even though you love me now Even though, I'm so afraid of you. Everything I love lying bleeding around my feet How did I end up holding the smoking gun? I had something so fine for you Something strong Something brittle You stomped my lovely gift into pieces With your big boots (I think you didn't even notice) When I saw what you'd done I took a sledgehammer to it all And I smashed it to powder Everyone came to eat popcorn and watch And I was holding the hammer They raised an eyebrow And crucified me And no one cared And no one saved me They all spat on me And said I did it to myself Even you And they were right Although not in the way they thought I did it to myself long long ago No matter I put on the crown of thorns they made for me And hung my head Published with Blogg...

I thought I had your heart and soul I gladly gave you mine But now I see, it's not just me Who else is on your mind? You say that ship sailed long ago Her heart just wasn't in it But though you never got together You'd have said yes in a minute You don't tell her, you won't tell me You sneak while I can't sleep I read your eyes all full of lies And promises you can't keep I know the truth, but love you so That I just play along Even though, if she said "go" I know you'd be long gone Today I saw her through your eyes The truth now plain as day. And here's the thing: I am first string But only cause she won't play Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.7

It's been such a long lonely time Since you put your arm around me Since you pressed your lips to mine Like you did when you first found me It's been even longer still Since you told me that you loved me I wonder if I ever will Hear the words, "Baby you're so lovely." I'm not saying that you Haven't been true I know you haven't put anyone before me But there's more to the deal You answered "I will" When they asked if you'd always adore me. But who's counting The days I give, but I don't get love? I just stand here all amazed Cause it seems that you can just forget love. But as it gets longer and longer, The longing gets stronger and stronger For the days when you had eyes for only me Who's counting? Lonely me. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.7

He wasn't there She discounted the good in me Black void where I know something goes! I curiously watch those who have it. That foreign thing. Head cocked to the side. Confused. Trying to absorb the culture by osmosis, or at least learn the language. I play it again and again Even though it's painful. Your icy glaze overlooks me. You and your fucking walls That no amount of pleading touches Or hot tears melt. You only do the right thing if it's someone else Anyone else. To let me know I'm at the bottom of the list. Yeah, I got the memo. Do you find yourself here? It's because you've injured me. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.7

M: You can't expect me to read minds. Heidi: Can't I expect you to put two and two together? M: No! I'm a boy and I'm retarded when it comes to emotions. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.7
