In Short, I Fell Head Over Heels For Someone Who Was A Player, But Enough Of That, You'll Figure it Out. =]
Tango
Its such a cliché to start a poem with a photograph of you But thats just what we are about to do And Im glad that she left with her light Im just crying because I wasnt yours So excuse me while I fade into the darkness.
Ive been driven mad by the jealousy you granted me Just like the tango, You switch partners whenever your music changes
In my mind Im drenched in the blood of my shattered heart In your world You can finally breathe because of the sanity She gives you A sanity you never gave me the chance to provide
But I would not have been good enough anyways I would never be a match to light the world of someone as perfect as you.
So let me jot down every sentence recorded Perhaps invent a new word or two And let us hope soon it will drain me of every emotion Of every yearning Ive ever had for you.
And this pen wont cease leaking words O, the friction of ink on paper is creating sparks Im afraid of being burned Since when has self expression become an anxiety? Could you give me the date so I may mark it down? For this is a memorial event that deserves recognition, This is a turning point in life
And just like the tango We keep dancing and dancing and youre Spinning spinning spinning spinning Faster faster faster Am I the only one feeling dizzy? Am I the only one who is feeling sick? Such an artistic sexual betrayal you have introduced me to My love for you is such pure blasphemy
Are you ready to switch partners? Are we through? Are we over? If youre the one spinning in this dance, Then why am I the one getting tired?
Is she going to be your new temporary light? Its time that I faded into the d a r k n e s s
Oh, And Incase You Were Wondering, Yes, The Dance Scene In Moulin Rouge Helped Me Get Started.

I love this poem and how you made the last word darkness as well as the emotions and imagery. I was kind of reminded of that song tango from RENT. I hope you continue to share your poems, and I hope you are feeling better now.

No offense, but I do like Anette a bit better with most songs, but there are a few songs I like with Tarja's voice,but Tarja got kicked off for a good reason. Have you heard of Lacuna Coil?

Hahah, yes, I loveeee Lacuna Coil. =] Annette Sounds Good, Don't Get Me Wrong, She's Very Talanted. But, Her Voice Isn't As Opretic If You Know What I Mean. It's More...Modern.
Didn't Tarja Get Kicked off Because Of Some Issues With Her Husband? I Know She And Nightwish Are Still On Good Terms.

No, it's becuase she got all diva-like AND greedy. Becuase she was like saying how they shouldn't play in the US anymore or cell their CD's in the US, because not good market. But that's putting it nicely. but there's a site, they did this through open letters, and the guy in the band isn't her husband. Only her co-founder. But yeah.
