this was first more of a song, but then thought if i added afew verses it would be a decent poem. i called it ricochet because that means to rebound, which are the feelings i wanted in this. i wanted to create a person being swung back and forth by a pers


ricochet (drop me once more)

as you stare across the field,
with your cutting sword and defenceless shield.
leaving me the one to blame,
things wont ever be the same.

taking, taking everything.
heart is tired, ears ringing.
sinking, sinking slowly down,
then you turn away and frown.

is it me that's causing this?
lack of beauty, care and bliss.
as your face falls out of view.
there's the feeling that i knew.

and then the rain begins to clear,
and you take away my fear,
hold me tightly, never stop,
underneath you, then me you drop.

feel your breath above my face,
are we done with this chase?
do you feel my heart once more?
no, you drop me to the floor.

your intentions so unclear.
confidence, dont dissapear.
and your hand is gripping tight,
holds me breathless through the night.

then you soften up again,
as the sky begins to rain.
and my heart beats like before,
but then you drop me down once more.
