Why Tear Out The Pages,When You Can Throw Away The Book

im sitting on impatience;
seated on pins and needles of cliches--
awaiting another 'youre so much better than them'/

its so hard to see it
-without a focused belief to spare

[ive got two empty pockets
and a full heart to spend]

im that stepping stone
that took you to better things.
--that 'welcome[ing]' doormat
to your dwelling ground
of miracles and fake smiles.

this is more than you ever wanted...
so take whats left of nothing--

and kiss her once for me.

[it ended the way it began-
with nothing...

and even though we live
the same moments at the same time-
it will never be the same]

this piece in particular. . really speaks to me. honestly, I know this. I know this well, as you can tell in my later poems. This feeling sucks, but you've taken your amazing way with words. . and made this hurt appear so beautiful..

Fantastic write... some of those lines, like "ive got two empty pockets and a full heart to spend]"... I could totally hear someone like Janis Joplin belting that out. Awesome as always Twi.

without feeling that I need to leave feedback,to make the poet feel that thier work is worth something.I know,as such that isn't the case with you,but..this is worth more than anything I could put into words.

People like me,aren't meant to read poetry like this,like this..I should read all my poetry from books.Without knowing anything of the author.Then..I can peacefully be moved by what I read,in whatever way I chose to be..
