I Tried
by Absolut

I've seen these tears before
falling backwards from a time & place of pain
in a pool of thought where we began
I saw back then
a future of joy..
not but a few suns from this day
where you took me with your resilience of having your way

I tried..

but was denied full entry here
between these walls
where the memory paints the sky I could see you & I
as we moved in sync..
like the wind about the clouds
you wisked my mind until my time was spent in the constant push

I tried..

to vent this like how it rains so hard from inside of me
in these days of change some things stay the same
and now how you've pictured me
still I am
between these frames
so torn..
how I feel you from tearing me
in thoughts
these parts bleed no longer pieces of my heart
impulsive I rushed from the start to the end
where I thought we'd be as together penned forever
could you see our broken circle mend ?
everything beyond this X-mas past
could you do this math with me
where in 5 days our eve became the day you left alone
me..
praying in this new year for you

I just...
with everything as such...
*sighs*
Tried..

as it withered like everything I touch
that dies you know the reaches of my pride I couldn't just
apologize
and now I'm only big enough
so grown that now I'm only giving up
Tomorrow for eternal highs
yesterdays for goodbyes
I wonder if..
these days bring true a wish..
will you ever miss
me..
other than this
the long we'll never kiss
like a father to this bastard "Love" sometimes I feel it doesn't exist
Or maybe I wanna pretend it never did..
myself
and so convinced
in my eternal reflection I became a hollow man
my feelings disappeared
only now can I see this backwards reality turn around
but I don't know where to go from here..
I...I don't know

hindsight maybe 20/20 but it doesn't hurt any less...

Poet this was an immaculate creation...
you are poet that knows the key to
writing the soul free...

Flame on...
