This Exasperating Happiness

Fine, I admit it. Are you happy now?

 

O dearest vain one,

 

 

 

Of ages within this skin

                        This elaborate mask

                        This sinful grin

 

I’ve come to realize that I am who I’m not

Which is I am from where I’ve not accepted

Or perhaps that I have seen what is not to be there

Then again I am what I used to be from now on

 

This confusion is me

My skin                

My elaborate mask

My sinful grin             

 

 

Whatever

Alright

Of course

So...

 

 

 

I wish to write you a love story

A Nick and Norah project

With Beatles inspired rhythms

Flowing into Beach Boys’ magic

 

You know, that Prestige mystery                

In manga form                                   

Only having the animation from anime

That kind of silly thing           

 

  

 

But I'll do this instead

Write you a cheesy song

That will try to pass along

That we really belong

Together

 

With these horrible rhymes

And these terrible lines

You’ll see all the times

That I’ve built these mines

Of love

 

So bear with me

Because, you see

I really love thee

More than...history?

 

This is so tragical

It’s practically magical

With its splendid vernacular

And romance so romantical

 

 

 

 

 

The Summary

Of this monstrous...crap

Is really quite simple:

You are such an unbelievable a*s!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hugs, kisses and many beatings to come,

Kitten

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

You are such an ass, I swear.

[bob, small b. aka invs]

i'm glad i discovered your writing. this one made me laugh. the forced rhymes in the cheesy song section were great. you could be a rap artist with your ability to make bad rhymes. the rest of the poem was alternately brilliant and funny. sometimes both simultaneously. i don't know who inspired this, but this is quite a tribute to an a*s.

[Dietrich von Crowe]

I absolutely love this stanza:
I've come to realize that I am who I'm not
Which is I am from where I've not accepted
Or perhaps that I have seen what is not to be there
Then again I am what I used to be from now on

It nearly sums up all of our obscure or otherwise incredibly ambiguous conversations and emotions and such...
The allusions were all cleverly used, and this is a poem I think only I could truly appreciate because of who it's written about ;p.
I really do underestimate some of those feelings you have...

[Jacqueline]

You know who this reminds me of?
I think you do.
The person who its about, most likely.
But I like it.
It makes me chuckle softly.
WONDERFULLLLL. :D
