Description In your twisted mind how do you perceive
The emotions and naivety of me?
Do my mind and heart lying crushed in your hands
Tell you to finally let me be?
During your drunken rage comes a moment of calm,
And your youth flashes briefly by.
You blunder to cover, but even my frail heart
Can tell the truth from your rancid lies.
So blow off some steam,
Kick, yell, and scream,
And curse the day I was born.
My heart may be weeping,
My mind may be soft,
But from them I'll ne'er be torn.

I really like the rhythm of the last six lines. *dances to lines*

They were definitely a welcome relief for me from the rest of it!

I'd say you know where those feelings are coming from. There is something to be said to never get over lies exposed. I forget what. I think sometimes that the mind is a window to the future. It expresses anxieties and fears and often if they bother us enough, we make those fears come true by trying to run away from them. But also, they are sometimes related to an emotion we repress. These emotions have to be vented somehow and in certain cases, writing is the best way. And at times, we might be channeling the emotions of someone else. Funny how the mind really works though. This comment seems hardly related to the poem, but that's how my mind works. I like the sinking feeling at the end of the poem, it's as though all consciousness blurs out as if passing out. Good work

You actually hit it right on the mark! Repressed emotions, and I do wonder if I sometimes daydream so much about being in the shoes of others that I actually become them for a bit...and then start getting -their- repressed emotions minus most of the set-backs of it. *grabs the nearest worry-stone* And yet I can't act for ...poop? *shakes a fist*
