85918, Acceptance (Never Comes)
Posted by Pit Bull, Sun Jun-06-10 06:50 PM
I wait, I breath
you stay and I leave
Can't stand to sleep
this bedroom is where the monsters feed
don't think I don't know you smile when I bleed
I'm a life full of mistakes
and two skinned knees
Longing for the snowflakes
when under the summer heat
Layin in the sweaty sheets
and left my skates on
as the days became weeks
Used tequila as napalm
tryin' to stop up these leaks
I always come back when I know I should stay gone
My mirror is the devil,
attacking the weak
and causing a humbling of the meek
Forces me to 'question' my 'perception' of reality
and great memories become sensual fallacies
Don't know why I can't be allowed to be
but today ain't the day I decide to start cowering
Too many times I've showered in the sink
head pounding too hard to think
and no cards left up my sleeve...
I wait, I breath
You stay and I leave
There's no trees left for the leaves
there's no birds left for these bees
There's no sight left for visionaries
and nowadays nobody see's.
Peace.

ties it all together... but, these lines are what I enjoyed most:

I gathered you meant (breathe) for "I breath." Overall, this is not one of my favorites from you, but the honesty is there, the power is there, and the language held my attention. Good work. Peace~
