I am empty,It's hard to understand how I became this way,Was it you? Has it always been you?Leading me into this dark pit of emptinessJust so you can say you broke me so bad that I don't know what it feels like to love anyone but you? Or is it to warn off others? To make sure no one else can have me the way you did.Or do I just blame you? Because I don't want to admit that all this time the problem was really ME
Sometimes I forget it's there,Then again maybe it's not?Or is it just that I wish it's not.My heartbeat I forget it hurts..But then again maybe it doesn'tOr maybe it's just I wish it didn't...
Sometimes all I can think is fuck.Sometimes I'm so sad the only word that wants to come out is fuck.Sometimes I am so angry all I want to do is yell fuck.FUCK.
Consulting summer's clock,But half the hours remain.I ascertain it with a shock --I shall not look again.The second half of joyIs shorter than the first.The truth I do not dare to knowI muffle with a jest.
The frog half fearful jumps across the path,And little mouse that leaves its hole at eveNimbles with timid dread beneath the swath;My rustling steps awhile their joys deceive,Till past,--and then the cricket sings more strong,And grasshoppers in merry moods still wearThe short night weary with their fretting song.Up from behind the molehill jumps the hare,Cheat of his chosen bed, and from the bankThe yellowhammer flutters in short fearsFrom off its nest hid in the grasses rank,And drops again when no more noise it hears.Thus nature's human link and endless thrall,Proud man, still seems the enemy of all.
The Winters are so short --I'm hardly justifiedIn sending all the Birds away --And moving into Pod --Myself -- for scarcely settled --The Phoebes have begun --And then -- it's time to strike my Tent --And open House -- again --It's mostly, interruptions --My Summer -- is despoiled --Because there was a Winter -- once --And al the Cattle -- starved --And so there was a Deluge --And swept the World away --But Ararat's a Legend -- now --And no one credits Noah --
