My Heart Is Pounding 'Neath My Ribs

-

I don't wanna spend

All my wasted time

Not making you mind

And being forced into forgetting you

And I don't wanna wake

Into the light of day

Of Sunday night being over already

But Sunday night will fall

And the movie will end

And that will be all

-

I thought I felt no other

__single pain

One that hurt

And left with no score

To put upon the board

I'm a little lame

My brains needs to be splattered

My heart is pounding

'Neath my ribs

And, oh! your pussy!

I just want a piece of it!

-

The damage to my love

That just burns! and burns! and burns!

All I wanna do

__is be satisfied

____with one evening with you!

But I know what's gonna happen

I know what to expect

__from a friend date

I've been on them most my life

It's just gonna be goodbye

You'll never be mine

And I'll cry and cry and cry

-

But this isn't another one of them

__"poor me" poems

I just got a lot of paper

And nothing to do

__but think of you

I'm not saddened yet

This has just gone to my head

And scares me a little bit

But I am only nervous

It's a natural feeling

Just wish it was a beginning

To something promising in thee end

But like I said

__"my wicked brain

____has a problem

______with overthinking it all"

I like the ending of this and how you express your feelings and your doubts. There's some frustration. There's some optimism. There's some introspect.

Thank you. Glad i took it out of the song lyric genre, and put it in poetry genre. It don't rhyme much enough for music. Doesn't even have a chorus. But I'm glad you liked it. (:
