in my dreams
you shout and swear
you knock me down and scream
you tell me all the things i did
and everything that's wrong
with me
you sneer and show your hate
you let me have all of your pain
you laugh
while my chest opens up
like a sinkhole
but when i wake up you're not here
and you are patient and firm
collapse my emotion with a cold border control
of stone security
which i do not have the papers to pass
i want to break it
i want to build a door
anything to let me over
but you are
once again so sure
and i am no one

but when i wake up you're not here

Miss Grin, your poetry serves as a much better indicator of your prediciment than words on a thread.
reads fine, simple raw truth
"while i am opening up like a sinkhole" seemed a bit off, perhaps it's the flow, ' while I open like a sink hole ' might fix it, but that said it may be a tad criminal to interfere with your originol thought chain
grand job

some kind of misplaced affection perhaps like erotic asphyxiation demands me to quietly poison his certainty while sleeping and give you the waking growl slap hug you deserve

you work some sweet intrigue into this with the border checkpoint
& the missing documents, like the letters of transport in 'Casablanca.'
tough to bust security when the key's as heartrending as a poem...

you don't have to be sure. you just need to forget that anything but you matters. i know what you speak of. i have to see it on my precious' face in the days of forlorn trust.
