[RJonthego@aol.com] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2001 06:01:54 -0700 (PDT) From: Seth Fulmer Subject: ET: Let's Walk Away(Poem) Hey everyone, Well, okay last night I went to see "Moulin Rouge" but recently I've been sorta tortured emotionally(hey you know me :P). Moulin Rouge is an awesome movie and I learned the best quote! "The Greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return."...It's awesome..you gotta see it. (and stay past the first 20 minutes of the movie :P Many people come to concessions after 10-20 mins and say it sucked). Anyhow, here' the poem. A little off the topic but before I go, I'm learning Portuguese so maybe in a little bit(a few days, a week, a month...either my sister or Dennis could vouch for my language learning ability hehe :)) I will have a portuguese poem out. If you don't want my poetry, let me know. Take care and Have a Good Day. ~Seth ================================================= Let's Walk Away by Seth D. Fulmer 6-6-01 You look at me but I close my eyes Stop being so nice and please lose that smile I love you and because of that It hurts me every minute Because I can't be with you or even tell me your feelings You write long letters to me and seal them with a kiss or many, many thousand or you write 'love' at the end Sometimes I wonder if you really mean it Sometimes I like to say it but demons broke my angel tongue So I think I'll stay here as a mortal slave to man The world will see the kind mask not the broken heart of an ass You've seen me in my finest hours even when crying and bleeding You hold me up with kind words and don't stop me when I'm gleeful You see value in where I see nothing a country filled with pure greed You see a nation full of experience and culture and through you I see that as well I want you forever to be happy and to find the man of your dreams I may not be him and I may lack the crown But you'll always be my friend I'd kiss you but I might fall apart I'd hold you but I might break The wounds which cover my inner heart might bleed and stain your halo Why don't I risk it? Why just be friends? I would fly with you angel but I'm afraid of free falling falling in love with you then losing all hope on the rocks or you not feeling for me all that I might feel for you So let's just be friends for now Let's walk away silently I'll love you from a distance and just never again speak of it This is my shield that I prefer to have It's safer for me never to love anyone The next time I fly and fall from the sky I'll be crawling out of hell My body will be dying I want you to be my savior I want you to mend my wings I really don't wish to be saved by someone who has hurt me.

(but for real i would be madspinningshrieking and making you laugh.) *** the beat in my mad blood sweats out through my eyebrows and no one wants to pluck them. *** the true language of skin of crushed sunlight and blue music i am just a person who collects words and puts them in an order that nobody else has. go on, tell the sky to lick me to death i know that words are public property and i take as much as i can get. *** prisoner fish and predator, both there must be a light near the surface if my head breaks through and it is dark i might hibernate for a hundred years. if stars won't fall i'll never get my wish. i am fierce and the world is mine i will die young and the ocean makes me restless and content, predator and prey like an animal i will tear the waves in two. *** Roya (curtis - for writing club) ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V4 #78 *********************************
