past feelings:: new hope

Afterthought
jessica k. shannon


forgotten; given half-hearted
acknowledgement:
this is what i've come to
when i wished for nothing less
than his heart beat.
condemn. make fun
if you must --
I deserve the ridicule for such imaginings.

this heart will not forget;
these eyes forbid erase
the moments which have
made my affection go to waste.
it grieves me to admit that in
want of his heart, I became his
afterthought...

..pinpointed melody..

..pinpointed melody..

"The music began slowly
myheart did not recognize its
start--half past falling i was in love
so that I cannot pinpoint
its melody.. <><>
the ache of your half-hearted care
haunts me even now
hours, days, slip by;; yet your lips are s e aled--
to be sure the beat of your heart which this mind
thought well read ;;betrayed your silence
and here I sit :: like an infantile creature, -->frozzen with
the love I have for you
desperate and e x p o s e d-
your unspoken words have stained the very core of me
this lonely little dove that I am
will carry your heart beat in hers forever,,]
now tell me :: can you pinpoint that melody?< ♥ > "
