Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go. So make the best of this test and don't ask why. It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.


Love's a straightjacket.
It binds you to the people.
Who matter the most.

In your time of need.
They will always be with you.
By your side, always.

That was a beautiful analysis of my poem! Never thought of it that way, but it definitely is true.
I do love Green Day. Like more than anything. And the Trilogy was pretty epic, loved them. I would have to say my favorite is X-Kid. Totally makes me want to take on the world. :)

It's somewhat funny. Because I keep thinking of some girls and guys too who are overly jealous and constanly having to know where the beloveds are 24/7. Talk aobut massive headache. At the same time, I find this poem to be cynicla, like a warning, yellow caution tape all over. And also, the poem is haunting like hey this can happen to you if you're not careful; it happened to me—adding a personal touch to it. The metaphor is creative. The poem as whole is witty and daunting. 5 stars. By the way isn't Green day just one of the greatest bands evah? What you think of thier last album. I'm obssessed with "Oh Love".
