A Broken Heaven

A Broken Heaven

A Poem by JayJayBlue
"

About how people will do/follow what is detrimental to themselves

"
To walk with me is to dwell in pain
I can only damage what you have built
Are you trying to mould me to your plans
As I pull you with me, down into the sands
I'm better off knowing I can't change
I'm tired of people saying I can still be saved
All I want is to be loved for my failure
To my instincts, I'm still enslaved
And I'm always looking for an escape
To condemn myself in karma's eyes again
I'm a mess, ostracised, sent to the wilderness
I'm not ready to make myself human again
To tie myself to a normal fate
To hold me is to feel the cold of winter
I will only break what you've strove to mend
I'm nothing but the ending of an idea
I'm the embodiment of all your fears
I sing songs, not of love but of true ideas
Don't believe I'll be yours for a second
Give up the idea of us in paradise
I only want a broken vision of heaven
And I'm always looking for an escape
To condemn myself in karma's eyes again
I'm a mess, ostracised, sent to the wilderness
I'm not ready to make myself human again
To tie myself to a normal fate

Love that second stanza. It's kickass.

You want to be loved as you are...
and you want to be extraordinary.

I also think you want to find someone extraordinary - to see past the layers and the walls you put up.
Someone able to enjoy fullness and emptiness too. I hope you find her.
