Poem 1


So it's been a couple of months and i have to say, i cant get you out of my mind. Images go by in millionths of a second because you were so one of a kind. I know i shouldnt call you that anymore since you walked through that door, but it was you who i used to adore. Im trying to forget but everything reminds me of you, implanted on my brain like a meninges tattoo. I dont know what to do, i dont know who i am, you were a glitch in my program. Innocent like a lamb you used to say "we'll wait and see", and unfotunatly i believed you; i thought we were meant to be. Now what am i sayin, maybe im playin; with your mind, with my brain, i feel inside that im going insane, this world to entertain me; but i know i shouldn't listen, i should abstain so i can attain what God has for me. I can't give in to this wordly sin, i want to come out on top and win. Not gonna lose the race by going out with a tailspin. What im trying to say is that im over it, im over you, now i know what to do. Focus on my life; go to work, stay in school, when its hot jump in a pool. Do what i need to do to get where i want to go. I must flow with life and everything it dishes; with lots of love i give you best wishes. What we had must swim with the fishes, but ill keep you in the back to remind me of a love that i could have one day; i guess this is all i wanted to say. Only for today must i reminisce, and remember that kiss and find someone who can do it better; but that will come later. School comes first so i can provide for a family. Destiny has it set im just along for the ride.
