fickle fuddled mind bent on the curve <br />drunken dizzied emotions a stir <br />nervous and wrecked, wracked on the tabs, <br />broke and broken, and bleeding from stabs. <br /> <br />itchy skin writhing with panicked pain, <br />muffled misery clouding the brain, <br />shoes are worn out, and toes are blistered <br />throat is numb, from screaming censored. <br /> <br />dumb and dumbfounded, all sense is lost, <br />caked and confused, at what this all cost. <br />i'm worried and wary, my hands are shaking, <br />eyes are bloated, bleeding while crying. <br /> <br />it doesn't matter, nothing else does. <br />you'll get your way no matter the cost. <br />i'm bleeding and broken from all your stabs, <br />but you don't have to worry i'm not keeping tabs. <br /> <br />dumb and dumbfounded, all sense is lost, <br />caked and confused at what this all cost. <br />i'm worried and wary my hands are shaking, <br />eyes are bloated, bleeding while crying. <br /> <br />i'll cry all i want, you don't seem to mind, <br />you've got it in your head that i'm wasting my time. <br />muffled misery clouding the brain, <br />itchy skin writhing with panicked pain. <br /> <br />shoes are worn out, and toes are blistered, <br />throat is numb, from screaming censored. <br />i won't scream no more, they fall on deaf ears, <br />i'll just sing my song and hope that you hear. <br /> <br />i'll sing all i want, you don't seem to mind, <br />you've got it in your head that i'm wasting my time. <br />it doesn't matter, nothing else does. <br />you'll get your way no matter the cost. <br />i'm bleeding and broken from all your stabs, <br />but you don't have to worry i'm not keeping tabs.<br /><br />Warren Augustus de Guzman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/not-ready-to-dance/
