Goodbye

This is Dedicated to my Ex-wife and our last conversation. I hope you enjoy.

Tasting your fear in the air
descending into madness
you ask me to repeat my name
as you trace all my scars
tormented by your touch
and this twisted game you play

Asking me to draw you a perfect life
but I�m not an artist
I�m a f*****g work of art
watching with closed eyes
as you chase your demigods
and gutter dreams

I don�t care if your world ends today
I wasn�t invited any way
just don�t say goodbye
we�ll see one another in the afterlife

I wasn�t the one that nailed Christ to that cross
But you look at me as if I killed your savior
Drinking your hate and hatred
cups of liquid fire
You stare back me
asking
to kiss it and make it all better
heal these wounded hearts of ours
We both have gone too far
to ever come back together

Screaming your I love you�s
as they fall of deafened ears
seeing you as just one more mistake
a lesson learned
as you left me with a scar
that can never forgive
and will never begin to forget.

Wow... Such passion in this write. Really a wonderful work of art. Your words are powerful. I feel the intensity of the picture you portray so vividly. Wonderful ... I keep saying that about your art, but I need to learn more accolades. LOL Thank you for the works you share.

You paint a powerful picture w/ these words
It was an excellent read, I would have to say my favorite part of it is
" I don't care if your world ends today
I wasn't invited any way
just don't say goodbye
we'll see one another in the afterlife "

Again great write my friend, thanks for sharing

Damn!!! Now that be some venom :) The anger and frustration jumped off the page here and was well placed! I loved the line about the person being a "mistake and lesson learned".....I hear that one loud and clear...you did an awesome job with this, Robert...it is so healthy to just get it out :-)

[Nicole (Carpe Diem)]

what a great write Robert... i will have to agree with the others - powerful and full of emotion -- love the line about being a work of art - that line just is kick a*s...

[Angel Bird]

Wow - These are pure emotions - raw feelings on display, served on a silver platter. A painting in motion in the most viv�d colors of an unbelievable scarcity! A palpable hurt - an enormous disappointment in her as much as in yourself - hatred - and a love still somewhere within you, all of these you make the reader bear with you in the true sense of the word. This work is of a colossal power and even violence.
A fabulous read from the first word to the last! Kudos!

There's one paragraph that makes me wonder about its real meaning!?

- I don't care if your world ends today
- I wasn't invited any way
- just don't say goodbye
- we'll see one another in the afterlife
