Ego
first of all
when it all boils down to this
don't hide your troubled eyes
and say it's embarrassingly small
Our visions collided
I took a chance out of disgrace
instantly your head occupied
the silence made me sick
Promise sounded like a paradox
of course I fell for it nevertheless
patient hesitation
before a kiss
blinded addiction
smell of death
pleasure in obsession
eternal chaos in abyss
scarce knew love's slave
though all the audience has left
I have stayed to witness it all
yet my opponent
when I finally confronted
and played him one last song
is still drenched in hate and frowns

this is a great poem!
oh. my. god. Crob, I LOVE this poem. The emotion is great. You can tell that there was actual thought in it. Another amazing poem, teen philosopher.
Hello. I am leaving this comment on everyone's blog. This comment is to inform you that I have recently re-updated my blog's layout, and added new posts.
