    Between Good-Bye's

    Between Goodbye's
    Written By: Mr.Write & Spekz

    Our song of whispers,
    has played it's last set.
    Do they notice
    that I stare deeply
    into the galaxy in your eyes.
    The oceans between
    crash vigorously
    upon our shore we share
    but divide with
    our hearts beating...
    Day by Day-

    Am I alone?
    does emotion cry
    itself to sleep?
    My mind dreams of dreaming,
    while my heart still
    stays searching for comfort.
    The embedded rocks
    That glass case my feelings
    Behind pertinent cries
    That leave many in shadows
    And fear-
    I curled my fingers
    Around love
    For a tighter grip,
    A second grasp of chance..

    Of
    Eternity-
    Belief-
    Love-


    I hoped for you to come around,
    A way of showing a better person
    That you are-
    I believed in myself a bit too much,
    For you to not see me at all.
    So please forgive me,
    When I tell you- later
    That I don’t love you anymore
    .
    .
    .
    ...and away we went with failure...
    .
    .
    .
    Gasps of true love
    flood my lungs,
    strung on hello’s
    cutting my lines to escape,
    sighs of good-byes
    lace my voice inside,
    but never vanquish.
    Still, struggling with thoughts
    Of leaving you – and being true;
    With you. Now im stuck
    Heart racing, you stare;
    Stomach turns – but I remain
    Stationary, color drains,
    Pain facing me.
    See baby….
    my voice trails
    Weakening at your beauty,
    NO.
    shaking my thoughts,
    In hope a new picture paints itself.
    Grasping my pair,
    Confidence still impaired
    skin trembles, resembling nerves
    Of the night, I said…
    …I love you.
    Now,
    Im lost in your eyes,
    Trying too…
    …say good-bye.

    So i hope you understand
    when i tell your dreams...
    ... we we're just not meant to be.
    -It hurts
    to say it like this belittles me,
    but he does a better job of showing.

    Re: Between Good-Bye's

    pretty sick guys.. not a bad read. I liked the concept. "Between goodbyes" kind've mysterious the way you guys wrote it in a way. there was a lot of great poetic language though and honestly your styles blended brilliantly. I can't tell who's who. I'm assuming spekz was the last couple stanzas though.. favorite parts:

    ^^assuming that was spekz, that shit was just damn lol.. but word.. really dug that part.. and also this..

    ^^that was pretty dope too.. not bad, not bad.


    pretty well done collabo here. seems pretty organized. no real complaints. the "embedded rocks/glass case" lines one right after the other was the only thing that struck me as weird because the comparison just seemed odd. but maybe it was meant to be like that. anyways... good read dudes!!

    This was a really nice read and had some great emotion and images spread through out,
    I was hooked by the awesome language both writers adopted, very nice.

    I loved the talk of the persons emotions, both of you, as writers can really pull this off,
    so I was expecting big things and got them.
    The concept was tackled well and imagery/description was used well and added to the read with lots of deep and raw emotion.

    I believed in myself a bit too much,
    For you to not see me at all.
    So please forgive me,
    When I tell you- later
    That I don’t love you anymore


    ^^This part was dope, I loved the word choice and it really stood out, fantastic.

    As an opener this was top notch, it set the read and hooked me in, lovely language.

    Gasps of true love
    flood my lungs,
    strung on hello’s
    cutting my lines to escape,
    sighs of good-byes
    lace my voice inside,
    but never vanquish.


    A great way to start the second part, I really enjoyed the images painted here,
    great wording and raw.

    Thought both of you did well here, a nice read all round,

    Peace.

    idk who wrote that, but it was really nice.
    overall this was a great collab, both had some seriously wonderful imagery.. this was the best thing i've read in a long time if i'm being honest. the nostalgic feel was refreshing considering all of my own poems end up like that, the first person had great line breaks and wording and the second brought a personal feel which brought the poem to life with some witty lines. this deserves a NOM.. remind me to nom it if nobody else does. please return the feed.
    LOL
