Your Last Rhyme

the term 'friends' was once pure and untainted
as far as restricted human will would permit
but this day has brought about changes
with whispers and giggles; a new fire lit.
what did you consider love,
of which you speak so openly now?
for surely what you'd prior shown
was much lesser than sacred vows.
love! i scoff at your use of the word!
so disdainfully tossed about!
no, love is not an emotion you extended
with your mockeries, teasing, and pouts.
claims may be made, concerning 'joking'
but you cannot deny what's been said
paranoia coupled with the name spoken in low voices
could make anyone suspicious and mislead.
and thus, one carried it even further
using the weapon of the written word
weaving an intricate web of hatred
that later would be differently said and heard.
no. love isn't what you showed him.
especially not in your writing.
and when you came to defend yourself,
it was the same as always; for your sanity, fighting.
you said that you were sorry,
but that hollow promise had been used far too much
and when you tried to gather pity, oh, poor you
he finally realized it was a pattern as such.
look back upon your past years,
and you can surely find,
that in that time you've hurt him plenty
but it had always ended on the same, pleasant line.
well not this time.
he found the strength to resist your weakness,
and destroyed, for his safety, your last rhyme.

the last remnant of your epic connection.

this seems to have a lot of anger...and it seems a little harsh, but wow. It's really good! whoever you wrote this to must have really pissed you off.
Comment by tearsofrain: Jan 16, 2008 4:51 pm
a). ummm. wtf.
b). you have no idae how much i love him. still. people fight. i'm still angry, he's still angry, but i will always love him
c). hurt tends to be mutual
d). christina and i express our dicontent in whispers. sure. but we usually turn right around and say exactly what we had just whispered. you need to get over your little paranoai, or at least accept it. we all have our worries. but your a passionate poet, right? pft. i "scoff" at you.
e). here comes the bitch.
f). what do you know? half of this poem is based on things other people have said. how often had WE, you and I, commented on the over-use of the word love? myself, i neverever use love cheaply. if i say i love someone, i mean it completely. when i say i'm sorry, i tend to be sorry. because i love the person, even if i become annoyed at them. i get annoyed at everything/everyone in existence at some point.
g). christina has every right to write whatever she wants to write
h). love isn't balck and white. as jonathan larson said, there's a fine fine line between your wonderful and goobye. and as Vane says in Stardust, love is stupidly easy to mistake for hate.
i). You dont know the connection between christina and jason. you dont know how she loves him. how shes so sick of not being enough for his fickle attentions
j). you dont know what it means for me to love jason. you dont know our history. you dont know what we've been through.
k). i'm pretty sick of it myself. i hate being afraid to get online for the crap that will be aimed at me or a friend. it gets old.


so. enjoy your poem.

youre right, it does get old...so stop complaining...because no one wants to hear your shit at all
Comment by undefinedlove: Jan 16, 2008 5:15 pm
you can scoff at me as much as you'd like. =) it's not like you don't anyways. and no, i was referring to his paranoia. if he hears his name, he worries that you guys are saying something awful about him... i care for him, so i care that he's feeling paranoid. and yeah, sometimes you would tell him about it... but you know, that was it, too. that you guys were always mad at him, and if he tried to say something, you'd either laugh or mock him, or he'd just take it. i don't know how that was fair to him, i think it was kinda taking advantage of how easily he accepts these things. if you guys were really, truly hurt, why didn't you confront him maturely instead of talking behind his back, or telling him to his face but without the full chance to defend himself?
and what's based on what other people have said? why did we have to discuss the overuse of the word love for this poem to be valid? i'm confused, honestly... sorry... if you explain this to me, i'll answer you sincerely.
yes. i agree that christina has every right to write what she'd like to. she's very good at writing. i'm glad she's using her rights as an American. i am too.
i'm glad christina loves him. if she's tired of 'not being enough for his fickle attentions', she should have told him about it. once again, maturely. fairly. if she has and i don't know about it, i apologize. if this poem was written without total knowledge of everything, i apologize. want me to rewrite it? i can. i don't want to be unfair, but i'm still going to speak my mind, just like everyone else has.
and if you're sick of it, then why let it bother you? i'm just an insignificant poet that you scoff at, right? why am i worth your worries, since you already have so many?

and thank you. i hope you enjoyed it too. *sarcasm* =}

because we weren't hurt. we were disapointed. but that has escalted. beyond the point of hurt, to the point of us just ignoring you.
and yes. i have worries. so kill me. sue me for wanting to talk things out with my friends. huh. i really must be a freak.
aren't you just the diplomatic sweetheart.
Comment by undefinedlove: Jan 16, 2008 5:36 pm
i'm sorry to hear that. i wish i could have known. can i ask you something, please? was it me or jason that really upset you?
it really sucks that we're arguing. i just realized how rude i was to write this. it really wasn't my business. i just... get really upset, and then it escalates, too. i don't expect any forgiveness, because i don't deserve it and i'm sure this is way beyond what permits forgiveness. i just needed to say it. i honestly do regret writing this. we were such good friends last year. i miss the friendship. it's all just so. iffy. this year and blah. i think i did lose track of everything to a certain extent.
either way, i am sorry that i attacked you like this. i can take the poem down if you want. it's not my place.
Comment by tearsofrain: Jan 16, 2008 6:23 pm
i just. i really...
i'm so tired. and sick of it all.
i just want to be happy. i want to the world to be happy.
i'm sick of being jealous and hateful and honest and angry and i'm sick of having to try so very very hard to just get over it. i wish i could be automatically over it.
i'm very tired because of the constant studying and all my chorus and lirima and carnagie duties. i'm not making excuses. and idk if we'll all work it out in the end. i just want to move on and just. stop. all of this. its so ridiculous. i have to always have the last word, and i'm still angry and all, but i'ma also just... tired.
so i'll stop talking and just... go with the flow. the world should do that more often.
Comment by tearsofrain: Jan 16, 2008 6:24 pm
haha i'm like "just... just... just.... "
anyway.
i really do wish you both happiness. this is life, i suppose.
Comment by Atwood: Jan 17, 2008 2:21 pm
ahem. well.. Alison strangely isn't confused at all.
Ha.
Despite the rudeness of your poem, Kayla, it was still good. I like the emotional ones like this =] rude is always excellent. =D
you should read it out loud in a mocking tone like I do with mine sometimes =p
And somehow I feel like everything I just wrote was somehow offensive, like it's giving off that tone but I swear it's not supposed to be if it sounds that way x)

All of you should just stop fighting though. It's taking a toll on all of you and it's hard to see your group just fall apart like that. You guys being so tired of all of this to the point of wanting to ignore it is really awful to hear.. Don't let your friendships slip away.
Ahem.
The end. =]
Best of luck to you all.
Comment by pmaravelias: Jan 28, 2008 6:26 pm
um, there seems to be some drama, here but about the poem, I like it alot because of its fast pace
Comment by TearRains: Feb 1, 2008 1:28 pm
i surely know not what happened between the three (four?) of you but this poem is surely disdainful calamity! since when did poetry become something to be used as a slanderous weapon against those that were once as you said friends. since when do you turn so qquickly on those that could mean you well. simply because of past disaster? how know you that they havnt changed? this i ask of you reconsider.
Comment by brokenXbruisedXbleeding: Feb 16, 2008 8:35 pm
STOP THE DRAMA!!!! please.. this site isnt for your bickering. oh but i liked the poem.. but ladies please be mature and stop. its not worth it. boys arent worth arguments not at your age.. your still teenagers.. boys come and go... dont let it break up friendships..its truly not worth it... great poem though
Comment by undefinedlove: Feb 18, 2008 9:20 am
um... yeah... about that. this was a long time ago and why on earth is it a problem when it does not say anywhere that you MUST read comments?
guess i'm just in a bad mood but it kinda made me wonder...
Comment by SisterofDarkness: Feb 21, 2008 2:23 pm
sorry Kayla...I Did read all the comments...I like the poem, though...it's very well written...and I really hope all the drama and stuff's over with cuz I LOVE EVERYONE!!! and I've had enough with drama...LETS KILL THE DRAMA!!!! WOOT!!!

sorry...I'm kinda hyper...but seriously, you did do a very good job on the poem...and TearRains sounds like yoda!!! hahahahahaha!!! lmao!!! but seriously...brokenXbruisedXbleeding...if you're not part of it, lets stay out of it please...otherwise you may have a footprint on your face lmao AGAIN!!! sorry Kayla didn't mean to act all weird...I seriously started this comment to tell you how good you did on the poem even if it doesn't sound especially NICE (friendly-nice, not good-nice)...Smiley
Comment by SisterofDarkness: Feb 22, 2008 4:16 pm
okay, just so you know, I re-read that comment, and it kinda sounds like I'm high or something, so I just want to make it clear that I am NOT on drugs...
Comment by crazyforcodymylove: Mar 15, 2008 9:29 pm
