Grex Poetry Item 71: THE END OF ME
Entered by zoe on Wed Apr 7 22:15:33 UTC 1999:

this will be my last posting for a long while... i just can't do it 
anymore...

              THE END OF ME

this city;
so cold and heartless..

i'm trapped in this maze of disbelief and intolerance.
and this world spins-- 
and spins..
until i cannot see my hands;
until i cannot see what surrounds me...

i float down the alleys..
trying to grasp what they all seem to preach..
though there is nothing to hold on to--
no handle or knob i can pull to exit this.

i am torn from every direction..
scratching away at my feelings;
leaving my insides raw and bleeding..

then they reach out--
just to make it hurt;
just to watch me scream in pain...
this is all i am to you,
this is all you see..

flesh and blood eating away at my soul..
let me die before they take another peice,
before they endulge themselves in the last of me,
leaving me a bare skeleton of what once was myself...

i sit,
drowning in my tears of loss..
not of self pitty,
but who betrayed me in the end..
perhaps it was me--
perhaps it was my innocence that killed me..
or maybe it was you,
and all you put me through...


so long everyone.. maybe i'll check in every so often.. if i'm here..
     love
        ZOE

What the hell?  Zoe, we love your poetry!  Out of the most bitter pain 
the most beautiful works of art can be created, both in the pit of 
despair and in the rapture of redemption and victory against the odds.

this isn't the first time someone has made their goodbyes to poetry cf and
had people following them through it begging to know what's going on... and
it probably won't be the last...  tempermental artists. [;

This one I liked.

As far aswhat arianna said, what on earth are you talking about? Nobody's ever
gone and then returned. ;}


#12 of 17 by toking on Thu Apr 15 12:32:19 1999:

that's right...nobody <tee-hee>


#13 of 17 by arianna on Thu Apr 22 22:31:59 1999:

hmm.... are you being silly again?...  the people that jump to mind when I
think of people that've left cf are selena.  and peacefrg (though he didn't
really leave by choice, from what I understand).  and jenna (who might be
still reading the cf for all I know).  did you leave at one point, brighn?..


#14 of 17 by brighn on Fri Apr 23 23:49:11 1999:

I left, Jenna returned at least once after "leaving" (though she's gone now),
toking left at some point, Vampyre returned after "leaving" (then left again),
Melly/Morgayn did the same. Others as well, I'm sure, less publicly.

Sorry.  Guess I *am* being a little silly.


#16 of 17 by zoe on Mon May 3 19:16:16 1999:
