First Time Here....Be Nice - Page 14

I just spent half an hour on this thread reading all your writing EdgeVox. I'm not even halfway done with reading them all either...

but your writing is incredible. you so say much in so little words. keep it up

Achtung_Bebe · 12-30-2005, 05:25 AM

hey EdgeVox,

Do you have anything else you could share with us?

ZeroDude · 01-01-2006, 03:44 PM

I'm not in awe of your writing ability but so much raw emotion is powerful to say the least but as we know life goes on, we all must pass, words are merely a tool with which we use to communicate and praise is often trite and does little to sate your true desire for recognition not of what you write but of the person you are.

“EdgeVox” if you're still out there, I'd be intrigued to see what you can write these days.

And that is all I can say.

EdgeVox · 02-14-2006, 04:37 AM

There I go making a spectacle of myself
Again
You've had too much wine so you laugh at first
Its not til you squeeze my hand that I realize how angry you really are
God bless you sweetie
Always keeping me in check
Conservative kisses set afire by twilight and Jesus' blood
I love you for keeping me around
That's when I realized that I wasn't sure what I brought to the table
Besides righteous indignation brought on by alcohol laden fireworks
They pale in comparison to the ones in your eyes
The ones in your embarassing purity
you do nothing but shame by allowing us to participate in the most mundane pleasantries
With you
My God, the lights in your eyes
My faith
My compass
My Northern Star
What can I hope to take from this life
Without you to light my way
How can I hope to ever find God
Without you to light my way
My gasoline heart
My amphetamine muse
My whiskey soaked love
My skies went grey a long long time ago..

EdgeVox · 02-14-2006, 04:46 AM

On my fourth beer
I remembered your face
Steel plated anonymity
Incredulous nostalgic sex
Too difficult to ascertain what it was that made you wanna leave
Grey skies surround my self loathing
I love the smoke I inhale
Because I know its killing me
Its not cowardice
Its a very conscious decision
To fuck off
Hair of the dog again and again
Whiskey laden self diagnosis
Taxi ride home's a disaster
I'm too drunk to remember the name of the hotel
Another tunnel
The night's swallowed again
And the driver asks me to put out my cigarette
I humor him by throwing it in the front seat
Then things got really interesting
Don't ever let anyone tell you different
Mexico City is a bad place to get thrown out of a cab at 3:30 in the morning
Imagine my disappointment upon regaining consciousness in my hotel
"Damn
I guess I'm alive"
ALIVE
What does that mean anyway
It's 2:20 pm
Five hours or so of bullshit monotony
Til the goddamn sun retreats
Then the night can swallow me whole all over again...

youtooellen · 02-15-2006, 01:10 PM

wow, great writing!

neutral · 02-16-2006, 03:48 PM

Pretty good stuff, Edgevox

EdgeVox · 02-25-2006, 11:21 AM

Listless raindrops ease down my window
Desperately seeking solid ground to stand
Anything to give respite from gravity's inevitability
Yeah yeah another goddamned metaphor
I had my first good night's sleep last night
Can't even remember since when
I closed my eyes and the usual restless fireworks were blurred
Wonderful blurriness
Now my day's AND nights are chemically induced
My heart can take it
It's survived worse..

Good writing, EdgeVox.....know how you feel.

One in the morning
Stumbling through your second thoughts
I wouldn't presume to know what to do with me either
I tried to warn you
I tried to protect you
I'm a bastard through gritted teeth
How can you and I be okay
When I'm not okay with myself
Baby I'm wired
And I can't bring myself down to your arms tonight
Its that split second before the crash
That wishful thinking before swimming through the looking glass
In a dream we'd be together without the world crumbling on us
At the bottom of this hourglass of broken promises
You looked at me and smiled
I try to be clever knowing the end's in plainsight
I can't help it
Darling I'm wired
And I can't bring myself down to your arms tonight
Smokes, pills and liquid fire
I can't get enough
I can't get enough
Your razorsharp tart laugh
Unbelievably benevolent smile
And god bless that shit attitude
I love it
Oh and I'm a bastard too
But you knew that..

Yes, I already knew that

Please continue to write -- I absolutely love this.

The blackbirds strip the night sky of its sheen
The bed hasn't been made in a while
I don't want to change anything in this room
Rather sit here in the smoke and regret
Thinking you'll come back and fix everything
Remind me to do that thing I said I'd do
I'd tell you to remind me tomorrow
I've only been saying that for 26 years of my life
But I'd follow that irresponsibility with the most heartfelt kiss you'll ever know
You were the one thing I had the utmost conviction for
I always made jokes about my exagerrated and misguided chivalry
Only to then look you in the eyes and whisper
"I know its silly but know that it is also infallible"
You smile and throw your thin arms around me
And right then and there
I think I'm happy
Then I remember that I'm alone
And the bed still isn't made
As I hear the blackbirds chase another sunrise..

as a true procrastinator, I especially loved this bit

EdgeVox · 04-20-2006, 03:31 AM

Got a real handle on you now
Got no other reason to laugh with you now
Got something I think you'd like to see
Got an infinite amount of patience
Got no time to demonstrate though
Got no one in my life
Got some really good blues
Got some really rehearsed indifference
Got no time to demonstrate though
Got some weak-knee'd advice for the life you never lived
Got nothing but a pack a day habit
Got nothing but a drink to forget that
Got a real handle on you now
Because I am losing myself everyday..

Count Marzipan · 04-13-2007, 10:52 AM

Let's hope you never lose this.

Count Marzipan · 08-17-2007, 09:50 AM

long that i havent been to this thread.

edge vox my man where art thou! i always thought your poems are very inspiring.

EdgeVox · 05-15-2008, 01:27 PM

Pill popping
Amphetamine dropping
Heart racing
Hauling ass to no place in particular
Hit the ground running
On empty
Lie down when the sun gives way
Cannot shut down
The deafening noise of the moon
The cold and the regrets I can't forget
Cold sweat
Read a book
Work out
Cannot shut down
I have zero patience for brick walls
When theres no place I'm going
What are you fucking waiting for
To make up your mind
Stop coasting
Start planning
Start living
Start sleeping
Start dying
Initiate
Graduate
Procreate
Complicate
Masturbate
Cannot shut down
Sleep..

**Bonochick** · 05-15-2008, 04:07 PM
