    I tore out my hair
    Scratched at my face
    Covered myself in plaster
    Waiting

    This is no cocoon
    I am no butterfly
    This is no cinderella story
    I am ordinary

    This is about redemption
    You found me buried in time
    I cracked through the casing
    choking

    You put air in my lungs
    You pumped the blood back
    I saw eternity
    In specks of brown and hazel
    Eyes

    I may still wear bandages
    I may bleed from time to time
    But you clean me up
    And protect me


    May I keep you forever?




    Yea, it's about my boyfriend.. im lame.. :)

    I didn't think it was lame. I liked it a lot, and I thought it shows a lot of talent. Whenever a poem has a lot of passion in it, it gathers weight as a poem as opposed to just being words on a page. In expressing your honest feelings, you've created something worth keeping. Keep writing. :)
