Brown Monster

A poetical pause. This is an overflow of my feelings and emotions that I am currently experiencing in my life.

Who am I?
Who are you?
These questions I've been asking,
to  who I have no clue?
The battle between the two of me spills blood out every day.
your killing yourself, and me. I here you say.
One person overflows with love and always shows concern.
the other is bitter and twisted devouring all that belongs to you,
inside you now your anger  burns

The loved ones,near and dear have the patience of a saint,
but eventually our parting was inevitable. it was fate.
I cherished you not, poured hurt upon hurt.
one day your soul found solace in the arms of a listening ear.
Unaware to me we grew far apart, close but nowhere near.
the devil in me stuck my head deep in the sand,
while the light in me yearned for your eternal fuel and hand.

The revelation of your secrets near tore me apart.
It seems we had to come  to this place be moulded back as one.
My feelings now so deep in me they will forever run.
My determination is now so strong to forever be with you,
To crush all trace of the greedy brown monster that dwelled within me and grew.
No longer will I give the space for our love to be this shattered.
Our lives no more will be full of sorrow or in tatters.
I hope and pray now every day we grow together as one. 
My aim in life is to please you. Sit arms around you watching the setting sun.

Author's Note

As I say fist attempt at poetry. Wrote lyrics before but I know my structure needs some work but needed to release my current emotions and feelings!!!!

Thanks Sami for the positive encouragement. As I say dabble in wrting lyrics for my band but this was my first real attempt at poetry. I read it back to myself now and again and can always see something in either the structure or wording I would change but hopefully that experience will improve as I begin to put more poetry down on paper?! Thanks again, nice to see that people appreciate the effort and feelings produced.

We all evolve over time but I suggest you keep some writes to see how you changed . Poetry is a talent and learning experience too. Good luck in your journey.
