» Poem: the rythem of the war drum
the rythem of the war drum
written by piperneedshelp
04:23 AM 1/29/05
pounding in my head
is the rythem
the rythem to the war drum
my feet pound on the ground
no one is there to hear the sound
i'm running, running to the rythem of the war drum
its keeping me in check
keeping my mind off the reck
the crash i left behind
if only i could rewind
back to the begining of the day
before i could say
before i could choose
but the rythem of the war drum is there to remind me to forget
i keep running, running through the trees
the war is raging in my head
all i want is a nice, soft bed
it scares me, the things i did
i cant believe i could have caused that
i'm finally out of breath,
and from my head, the war drum is now in my chest
pounding out its beat
how could i have done that?
how could i just have murdered someone?
my sences highten and i become strong again
the war drum picks up its beat again
and i begin to run once more
