15758, a belated apology
Posted by Naanaa, Sun Apr-17-05 11:44 PM
there are so many things i hide behind.
a long faded past
a consequence of searching for perfection
in broken people

me, a paperdoll
i've since learned to keep my neck stiff
the wind will snatch your fragility
if you let it

when you came over
certain you wouldn't have to search
for something you thought would always be there
something in me tore
under the weight of your exploration
maybe it was the smoke
maybe it was the dark of my day that you never asked about
maybe i wasn't even ready to tell

i am sorry
i must concentrate on gluing again
and again
needle and thread does not work as well on paper

and what do i have to give
when the mask of my smile crumbles
and there is nothing beneath
but an affection that you did not allow anything else to affect?

and i am sorry i am being vague
you deserve better than my cowardice
but you should know that
it is not a matter of finding someone who wants you
because i do
it is a matter of finding someone who is not deathly afraid of
wind
15759, this is my life right now...right this second

this isnt getting the love it needs.
at first it seems like this is a weak squirming insecure lament...but its certainly not..its a wisdom piece, id say. it seems like its about steeling urself against the natural peaks and valleys, yes more so the valleys, that come with the heartgame. i like the paperdoll imagery too.i thought that was very poignant...

that was cool. you pulled me into it at first and then i lost track of it for a second but i caught it again right at the end. you can find truth in this in so many levels.

..there's no need to be sorry we're each trying to find the paths God has give us in this life..and in r/ships it is no exception...

I loved this piece.
