That's how I fallA Poem by Jean-Pierre GarciaI'm caught in between just fine and disrepair
How can it be so long since I've allowed myself to care? I'm falling apart and putting myself together with glue elmer's stick it just leaves a mess and I feel sick Because I thought I fit best sitting next to you feeling your breath as she said that I looked true "Baby, you and I are forever," How could my arms have meant that without me and you gazing off nowhere in the fruit punch taking it in It was then I could in your eyes each see a star drunk rolling on the waves of the sea and sway to the state of joy and glee Why do I still have two prom tickets and the night still fresh in mind I kissed you, we still had time Why do I have that picture and the moment, the moment where everything was just fine they said that it was wrong and I didn't know what we meant Even if things weren't all right We still had a song I know it wasn't just mine They were still beyond my sight, and yet I saw them real just beyond my window sill and there was you a tear for sign I can't lie to myself saying I was only reacting when I wasn't acting in the first place to 're' to... I can't I write these tears on my eyes Because I love you wasn't enough I couldn't say it I couldn't believe it but I do and still Roughly analyze Sigh with me, Nigh would be, too long For one of the guys Don't leave me alone don't leave me The world isn't enough when I'm still breathing and when my heart is beating pumping the blood through my veins through/throw out my names no one sang to me until you did and I couldn't keep my smile I tried to keep it hid All that while No, I couldn't not at all When you face me twisting the kink you phase me uncertain in how to think and that's how I fall © 2010 Jean-Pierre Garcia |
