I'd Taste

I'd Taste

A Poem by Blake Blackstone

"
I wish we shared our lives
I'd get to taste sweet happiness
I'd taste it until I'm full
My life alone is empty

We are all human
and we are all to blame
I should have known better
than to open myself up

A third party keeps saying
Saying things I hope are not true
prone to telling lies but yet
So determined that I can't help but let it get to me.

I am trembling at the thought
I am breathing like thin air
I sit in my misery and need
Waiting for  .........................nothing...............

I wish we shared our lives
I'd get to taste sweet happiness
I'd taste it until I choke
on all the lies you have been keeping

-Or maybe I'm becoming schizophrenic
A young adult male is about that time.-

Yours Truly, your neighbor

Freewriting... no real structure.. no rhyme.... definitely a reason...

Yes you are right. We are all human. Simple needs and be left alone to our desires and needs. I like the feel of this poem. When I see a child hurt or wounded. I see a child. Not a Iraq or USA kid. Just humans being trample on by the desire of hate and violence. A excellent poem. You made me think.

Awee Blakey it's okay...everyone has pure emotion...and it was written well. Don't worry about what people have to say...just know that it came from your heart...and we love you for it. :)

I just read this aloud after not seeing it since I wrote it and started crying. It maybe just be words or a "poem" to other people... but to me this is my pure emotion that maybe I only share with myself....
