I wish I could be smarter.
I wish I could have fun.
I wish I could find penance for all the stupid things I�ve done.
These thoughts they taunt me longer;
The sticky notes still fresh.
The yellow colors taunt me.
Mocking, for everyone to see.
And this is the reason my mind is unrest.
It�s always �Edward, do your chores.�
Or �Edward, be the best.�
Sometimes I wonder if they are a kind of test.
Just another reason they wish I wasn�t theirs.
So, I hide under my sock cap.
I try to face the world.
Try to face the pain I know will definitely unfurl.
You may think me pessimistic or, as Eddy says, a sap.
But, I have grown so used to pain.
What happiness can there ever be?
Filth and disappointment is all I ever see.
So, I enter the cul-de-sac, ignoring the impending rain.
Wishing just to be alone to drain away the tears.
But, my wish goes unfulfilled as I hear the words �Sock head.�
And I as turn around to see my friends Eddy and Ed,
I never felt so grateful in many, many years.
Eddy, smilingly devilishly, with ideas for a scam.
Ed, just grinning dumbly, looking far from bored.
It didn�t take me long to realize that this was my reward.
I know these are my true friends who accept me for what I am.
We have no obligations to fulfill.
No rules or sticky notes on hand.
Somewhere out of earshot from all our of parents� demands.
Despite my happiness, I know wishes plague me still.
I still wish I could be smarter.
Be able to let go and have some fun.
I still am seeking penance for the stupid things I�ve done.
But, now the thoughts are no longer;
As I follow close to Eddy.
My happiness and freedom is ensured.
Because, through all the pain I�ve endured.
I�ll still be Double-D.
poem. Do not take without permission.
Dedicated to Ghosthelwig, for getting me to write. Also, for my current
EE&E addiction. I LOVE YOU!
post it and see what people thought of it. It�s in a different poetic prose than what I�m used to, but I think it�s alright. I may add more poems from different perspective. One�s already in the works of Ed�s perspective that will be dedicated to Dart. Anyway, be polite and review�or something.
