The sun will rise on me again
I'll grow up and won't need him
Drop a line, catch another fish
Then my life can really begin

Wonderful clichés
How I want them so bad
Someone please prove
There magic is reality-intact

Time will take care
One day I'll look back and smile
This will only help me relate
Now I'm dust covered from that judgment-halting mile

Yearn-worthy hopes
You wear a hole in my pocket
But I remember you're truthfully as sturdy
As steamed tomatoes

If someone could just prove to me
If someone could just be tunnel ended light for me
If someone would wear this straight jacket I've made
But no one seems interested, or capable
So I'll take it on myself

'Heart-breaking pain'
My live-in cliché
‘Maybe you'll go away'
The prayer of my hopes
‘I'll live deeply, though I'm still holding you'
The testament of my strength

Posted by Kasi elaborated 2008-07-29 15:02:18 .... It's kind of sad how a cliché becomes what they are.. But I guess the popularity of it all is do to the fact that we as humans share the same emotions for the most part and haven't any other way to explain them.. But at least we all agree and can relate. + Report this comment
Posted by zenith 2008-08-08 22:50:39 .... Your life is cliched. So you really don't have a hold over your life. Love should make you strong but here it is your weakness. Perhaps if you give it up, it will all be alright. + Report this comment
Posted by chaabuk 2008-08-09 07:12:02 .... Oh! God. Life is so mundane abd as you say, cliched. At times, one may even try to change it but again it stops from where it was suppose to change. Liked it very much. + Report this comment
