Maybe By- Me Poem by Eli Unknown

Maybe By- Me



no eye wont be afraid
just as long...
as you stand by me
eye called to leave you a message
and instead you answered
eye froze in that moment
and lost all courage eye stood so long in the mirror building up
and so here i share with no one and everyone
if you read it - fine- if not no harm not foul
pretty fowl though if you ask me
but wait you didn't

it doesn't matter
it didn't last week and it doesn't today

how can eye go on from here
my tears fall like anvils to the ground
when eye have to look ahead and not have you around
-when- eye cry - you cry - we cry together

my words fall on ears that eye refuse to muse to
and there will be no eating here tonight
eyem on a diet

- so try it-

eat the words
once shed and yelled in anger and vain

and tell me things could ever be the same
as what they were before
.... the night you fell into someone else's bed

and how you were consoled in different positions
because you said my ears wouldn't listen

so now eye tune into you and say the things you want to hear
just not in your ear

- this part is clear
you feel that pain that eye do too
we share a certain truth
just perspective runs on a little different level
eye pour until the cup is past full

runneth over into me
and see what eye feel
feel what eye feel
and tell me
this here ain't real

we all know the drill
pretend this never happened
eye am not the enemy dropp your weapon
there is no trial or defense
in the moment we lay wrapped in suspense
stand by me

nicely done..very explosive senitments but you capture the dignity within certain emotional containment..feelings staying well within the perimeters they allow to express themselves..this is a excellent poem thruout..im certain to return to it again and again..thanks :)
