Car Crash
December 30, 2008
I.
At first it’s obsession,
wondering about every motion,
obsessing over the smallest details:
yours,
mine;
his,
hers.
II.
It grows comforting,
movements of the mind and body:
familiar
laughter
when an imprint of the bed is visible
from waiting for your voice.
III.
Boldness:
routine
heart-pounding:
beating beneath the breast
doesn’t stop
not for sleep
IIII.
In an instant,
car crash,
things change
VI.
What once was warm,
lovely
grows cold, (back)
bitter,
resentful;
no matter that gracing smile
when a kiss is played in my mind.
VII.
Though long ago
memories aren’t erased
not forgotten
though
when they hurt again
we wish to forget

double check your Roman numerals...
that's definitely true; when i remember, there are some things that I just wish I could block out... xxtearsxofxlunaxx, how exactly did this make you happy?
but if sad poems make u happy, i'm kinda curious what you would say about mine - i agree with most of your comments on past poetry, and want to know what you'd say about my poem: TeenInk.com/raw/Poetry/article/91407/A-Lonely-Rain/. enjoy!

Ohh!
I really really like this one.
Especially the way that it is formed, and such.
It was VERY nicely done. =]
