Confirmed chest tightens with the squeeze
of realization hitting the floor with
a harsh reality check slapped in the face
of a blunt force to be reckoned with
Sitting within the confines of a body
made for quivering jokes and poking
syllables with another rhyme game and
a hint that doesn't stay the same
She's just another sympathetic voice
coping with the changes in her world
She doesn't know when it stops, or
when she gets a chance to twirl
The merry-go-round is a fantasy waiting
in the dream scape of her own reality
crashing down around her when her eyes
open to find the disguised lies lain
The stress building within her heart exploding
is just another testimony of her endurance
She wonders to herself how many more times
she can shake before she starts to crack open
There's only once chance to make things right
when it comes to skirting around truths and
making up excuses to explain away proclamations
Is she going to continue on with the masked delay?
As she rocks into herself and shivers back another
quaking leaf in the midst of her throat, she parts
her lips and bites down on her tongue, wondering when
the game will finally be done, and she can breathe
The dilated pupils filtrating through her hazed eyes
are just another disguise of the drunken lullabies
keeping her up at night, wide awake against the dark
Her nightmares are just another way to hide from the truth
And when she finally opens those big brown optics,
she sees a whole new entry door in front of her feet
She wonders how deep she has to fall in the land before
she runs into another friend smiling through gritted teeth
Is it really so much to ask to be able to trust people?

Trusting people is not always easy. Opening up with your heart is even harder. Your heart will talk a thousand words to you, listen to what it says, act accordingly and you may find the love of your life.

It isn't to much to ask to trust someone. You just have to learn to trust the right people I suppose. I am really sorry for all the pain you keep locked inside. It is eating you away slowly. ~~Iridessa~~

Was wondering where you'd gone. Not seen anything new from you pop up in awhile, was beginning to wonder where you'd gone. You got anonymous turned on maybe? As is the fashion at the moment it seems...

I've been here; just haven't been inspired to write anything and not having the best of times. I'm invisible on MSN if you want anything.

I relate to this...I don't trust because of the things people have done. The descriptions in this are beautiful...and the words passionate and deep, very powerful write my dear

People earn my trust when they start getting to know me. Lately though, I've been discovering that some of those people may not be trustworthy. It's rather frustrating and upsetting.
Thanks for your comment.
