Ever feel like a story isn’t complete without the perfect ending? Call me stubborn, but I’m hardly ever satisfied unless I know I have won at the end. I know that no one is perfect, but I strive to be just that. After hearing from my friend that he had read the poem, I decided to write the sequel to it. I know this is going to sound so vain, but I know that I was the best thing that has ever happened to him and I know he will realize it one day. I know I shouldn’t, but I am going to send him an email to remind him what he has lost, just in case he still doesn’t “understand”.
: Colors Of Your Skin:
: Phase Two:
My heart can’t take this
The pain is unbearable
A mistake
The unmentionable
I want it to be over
I want us forgiven
I need a beginning
How must I lay?
When there is no space
You do not even move
There is no trying
No foreseen love
That you are supplying
For I can only lose you
As you lay here in front of me
My heart breaking endlessly
All because you’re too blind to see
As the waves begin to crash harder
Your skin starts to discolour
Purple in colour
The disguise of another
Not taking the time that’s evident
Yet I do not force it upon you
Because if you cared
This feeling of despair would not be there
Hovering over us
A blanket of stars
The sound of the water
Not knowing where we are
Thinking our conversation is taking us far
But reality hits
As the stars shine bright
I have regained my sight
Slipping
Slipping away
There’s nothing to carry me
But the motion of the waves
You just look at me
As I watch you as you lay
For your emotions are not even portrayed
I am lost
Looking into your eyes
Not expecting what we have evolved to
Not expecting these fights
Not caring whatsoever
For now I feel it’s never going to get better
I kneel down beside you
For you feel the sand will abide you
Yet I still try
For this is what I feel:
I feel a slight shiver
For fate has lead me to this tragedy
This feeling
For your paint is thin
Superficial is your consistency
No matter how much I try persistently
My substance you couldn’t take
Wanting you to be that change
But now we are confused
For substance is not your way
The waves
Crashing against the shoreline
As my heart feels the break
For we both are speechless
There’s no other way
Unpleasant memories derive
A memory unpleasant
The actions you have shown
Are hurtful and rude
And now you are the cause of why my canvas is bruised
The paints have consumed you
You are selfish and uncaring
Therefore we argue
Your skin
So discoloured
Your mind
So confused
For you will one day realize
I was the best thing that’s happened to you
For we are now alone
Something your heart cannot bare
A feeling your mind contemplates
I believe you are scared
There’s no compromise
An unwillingness to make it work
No value for time
You’re pushing me away
Because your canvas is in disguise
I don’t blame you for being this way
I blame my heart
I blame my mind
It’s a mistake I had made
And this is how I slipped:
Shades of copper
Objects underneath
The sound of thunder
Losing you
For I will now leave you
So others may seek you
I let myself slip beneath the copper sand
Allowing myself to be blinded to your life
As the colours consume you
Your transparency is weak
For there is fault in the way you have treated me
What’s done is done
We cannot change the past
But how long did you think
This treatment could last?
Your blank piece on your canvas
Shall remain blank and innate
For you have no true substance
To cover such place
Laying motionless
Your abstract ways
Are no longer blended in
Your enduring transparency
Your heart beating profusely
For your imagination has lead us to this place
I can no longer keep up with this pace
Watching from afar
I see you
Gazing at the stars
As you glance beside you
I am no where to be found
As the waves washed up on the shore
Laying there
Sinking into the copper sand
It is already a new day
As you begin to watch the sunrise
You realize
Even Imagery cannot express what you feel inside
For you have pushed me away
As you just lay there and digress
Uncontrollably each day
