RAIN ON VALENTINE’S DAY
This deck of cards has been stacked against us With all the hearts removed Just spades for your use to dig into my flesh Inject me with sorrow, encase me in pain The vultures circle me as we speak The sky darkens above The storm is born as our heaven weeps The rain falls on this Valentine’s Day We’ve cried each other enough rivers To widen this canyon tenfold Our every dream Beckoned by the grave Forced smiles are all that I can muster anymore As plastic as the tube the plasma runs through The euphoria I once saw Became a disaster in the making Our hypnotic remembrance The duress of our memories Put our ashes in a heart-shaped urn The rain falls on this Valentine’s Day We’ve cried eachother enough rivers To form this dreary sea Spread across our globe of sentiments Most of which we dare not chart I grow weary of staying here In this state of confusion I’ll miss you You c**t |

This was beautiful...I was to the point of tears. It touched me, it hurt me on some deeper level. Maybe because it describes how I feel...how my Valentine's Day was. Maybe because it just plucked a string on my emotional guitar...but then it was ruined with the last line.
You're a beautiful poet, and a beautiful song writer. You touch people. I don't know you, but I respect you, and I'd love to be your friend, but this piece was so beautiful...and....sad. But then the line QUOTE I'll miss you, You c**t. Pissed me off. It just seemed like such an angry ending to something so graceful. It's like watching ballet and then in the last part, the ballerina starts beating her partner over the head with a metal baseball bat. It just broke the mood. It just destroyed the emotion. I love this. I think you're a great writer. But I'm just gonna pretend that the last line of this poem didn't exist. Just because...the anger kind of....destroys it. Maybe I'm not making sense? Please, no one be mad at me. I'm not saying you're not a great writer. You should personally know that I look up to you, that I worship your writing skills. That just...I mean, my heart ached when I read this...and then it froze, and went cold. If that makes any sense. |
