Tolerance Let You Down
a voice is still resounding in my head, a face is
resurrected. and i can still believe;i will still believe
in what you say. i really wish you'd keep your feelings
to yourself, because i will let you down. swallow
everything you thought you felt for me because i am empty
and i'm never around. the places that i find within
myself are changing gray and foreign. and i will still
believe in anything that you say to me. i am empty and i
won't be around for long. long after this so-called
tragedy, all that is left are the tattered remnants of a
friendship that once stood strong. so easily we let
honesty take hold and set our minds racing, and nothing
brings out the worst in us like this. after all is said
and done, we no longer maintain the same amicable
attitudes we previously held so sacred. we are thrown
into a melee of negative thoughts and feelings. and for
what? a guilt trip; never ending, unrelenting,
meaningless. run. beauty takes me captive, takes me away
from everything i know is good for me. and for one
beautiful moment, i thought i missed you.
