ode to you by Nikki Benson
I’m fine without you
As long as I don’t think
Or feel or dream about you
I’m fine without you
As long as I don’t think
Or feel or dream about you
My eyes ran dry
But the feeling in my stomach
Comes and goes
In my minds eye
I’m better off without you
I’m the better of me and you
Pull out my heart
Squeeze till the blood falls - Into black and white,
I feel defeated
Another diatribe
Cheers, here’s to you
I’m fine without you
As long as I don’t think
Or feel or dream about you
I’m fine without you
As long as I don’t think
Or feel or dream about you 03/13/2007 Posted on 03/13/2007 Copyright © 2025 Nikki Benson

Posted by Steven Kenworthy on 03/14/07 at 12:57 AM this poem is raw & emotional. simple...but necessarily so. to the point & driven. the repetition drills the point home...angst all over the place, but with just enough resolve to give the reader hope. pretty & encouraging. nice stuff nikki. :)...his loss, as always. |
