a surprise by Googling

I was browsing for my name on Google and found a poem recital I did last Spring. You can see my school posted my poem with a couple of spelling errors. I'll paste my copy here for you to read!

Enjoy!


Heartsick by Deaf258

alone, sitting here waiting
eyes searching for love, a dream
in the vast sea, swims a few fish
floating in toxic waters, dying
in limbo, washed up and bleeding
rent to pieces, torn to patches

wounds and scars of the opposing
sexes, imposing absurd rules like
kill or be killed, love or be loved
twist of words, mind-bending games
now, it is a new set of silly laws
kill or be loved, love or be killed

razing, fazing, hazing, amazing
left there discarded, pain a' blazing
maddening, saddening, not gladdening
left there thrown away, old scrapings
wild vertigo, empty-headed and crazy
mentally furious, the burning soul

feeling small, reckoning the stars
moonless in the cold, midnight sky
hugging and crying, sad all alone
the feeling gnawing the heart, pain
dark clouds begin to cover, brooding
the rain came, oh, it fell, hard with hail

laying back, hurting and stinging, oh
not with a damn care, for life and love
motionless and still, welts and the red
lying back, ailing and cutting, oh
not with a damn dare, to live and love
the nicks bled and pretending to be dead

razing, fazing, hazing, amazing
left there discarded, pain a' blazing
maddening, saddening, not gladdening
left there thrown away, old scrapings
wild vertigo, empty-headed and crazy
mentally violent, the burning heart

lying, ready and waiting, dying
killing, hurt and waiting, loving
in limbo, washed up and discarded
bleeding, sad and waiting, needing
weeping, at rest and waiting, sleeping
death hoping, the soul rent to pieces
death wishing, the heart torn to patches

razing, fazing, hazing, amazing
left there discarded, pain a' blazing
maddening, saddening, not gladdening
left there thrown away, old scrapings
wild vertigo, empty-headed and crazy
mentally violent, the burning soul

..alone and heartbreaking.
