Book of torn life
written by burning_tears06:55 AM 1/12/05As i flip among my pages
i dare not tear the already torn
but why i wonder, do i seek
a page with not a sign of worn
i flip and flip, without a doubt
in search of my beautiful page
but i am soon to discover
all my pages are destroyed by rage
i've gone through my sad novel
whispy sheet by whispy sheet
destroying all my love and joy
because i have no place in which it will keep
the gaps that i must close
however wide they gape
cannot be sewed shut
or closed up with tape
i must refill them
with something so grand
that nothing can slip through them
not even a grain of sand
maybe the sand will come from the beach
or maybe it will come off of paper
but at least i know one things for sure,
my beautiful pages will be complete, thus making me complete |
