Dedicated Interlude (3/31/2006)

All these useless conversations are a little disrepectful
Just say it to me straight or is it all too stressful?
The niche that we both nestle without waivering conviction
Is confusion that I wrestle while in vain and contradiction
Cause you face no opposition, so I’m guessing it’s too easy
Was it something that I said that paved the way to lonely freezing?
The complacency you’re seizing is so fucking unpredictable
One minute we’re all fine then the next it’s all unfixable
And I hate how it’s all twistable and how it’s never physical
It’s confusing to the slightest and approaching inexplicable
Are we meant to be this miserable in this current situation
Or is this shit all cyclical? I lack the information
But here’s the aggitation, the shit that we leave boiling
Let’s spin the world around like the heart with which you’re toying
From the start you’ve been avoiding any kind of dedication
And I need a reason why for your silent reservation
Cause in spite of preservation, I put myself out on the line
Being honest and so open, always speaking from the mind
Concealing whispers of the heart that would eat at me inside
Even with my inner voices always beating me with pride
Now you’re cheating me of life by being unsimplistic
And nothing feels intrinsic when we walk against logistics
We’re silent, we’re terrific, then we’re nothing then we are
Can we make a damn decision on our place beneath the stars?
Cause I hate to make the charge, but I’m afraid to face the scars
And I’d hate to see it fade without a trace inside our hearts
But the place in which we are doesn’t seem so very logical
If we can’t make it to the start, then everything’s impossible

Notes: Fred Durst recently posted a brief interlude on his myspace and it got me thinking that doing something similar may be something to get me out of this damn writer’s block. So, here it is. It’s about 2/3 as long as my usual stuff, but it’s meant to be short and to the point.

Update: Nevermind. By the time I posted this, more came to me and it became a full length poem. I’ll keep the title just for the sake of it. As for the meaning, I think it’s pretty obvious. The flow is a bit “jagged” and needs to be read a little slower than usual, but my vocabulary is definitely better than usual.
