"A second"
  by *JazISweet*


It's been too long since my words have surfaced
Leaving the hungry minds nothing to feed off of
Love, live, life all cramped into the same over populated space
My head...

I sit alone and drown in my emotions like being held under water 4 too long
Leaving me with that painful burning sensation all through my head
I need some space to think on my own
Yet my thoughts wont seem to let up

Let me breathe,
Give me a few minutes on the clock to myself
Let me not wonder where my next dollar will come from
Let me not cry from the pain of love being taken from me
Let me not have bruised knees from praying too long for a place to sleep that I may call my own

I hate you, I hate that I cant focus on me because I'm so consumed with you

Thoughts....

Take over me and I just may become like a small marked pill
Filled with a bunch of chaos that will only make me feel worse when the night is done
Give me a chance to clear my mind and I too shall be able to appreciate my words
All I want is a minute to myself with out my troubles picking me up and dragging me awy to a desolate place
A second to wonder instead of worry
A second to smile instead of cry
A second to be happy instead of being miserable

I just want time for ME,
No thoughts
No emotions

Thoughts, Your crowding my Space!!

Wow, I feel like that too. Sometimes I think that I think too much. My thoughts are consumed with worries and desperation. Jaz, I've always loved (and still do) your poetry.

first off that picture is fuckin insanely ill!!! "I sit alone and drown in my emotions like being held under water 4 too long Leaving me with that painful burning sensation all through my head I need some space to think on my own Yet my thoughts wont seem to let up"---i can relate so damn much and the last line.."Thoughts, Your crowding my Space"--i surely suffer from also!
