I'm only waiting
For the flame to consume
What's left of my fate
But impending doom

I can only see
What makes people feel
And the tears in their eyes
When the pain is too real

I write my words slowly
With the hate at the end
Filled with dead silence
Searching for a friend

I know that you feel me
In your soul, not your mind
And you touch me so slowly
Pretend to be kind

I miss you, you know that
But you'll always have her
To shelter you from
My treacherous world

How did this almost leave the posting page without a response.  This is very nice indeed and seems heartfelt.  Enjoyed.

Nice write

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.

Glad everyone enjoyed it.  It's great to be writing again...  I have sporadic writer's block.  It attacks when I have the best inspiration points in front of me.  :p  
Anyway...
Thanks again guys,
Much appreciated.

Alicia - I am unsure of the inspiration of this write, but I do understand this:

I can only see
What makes people feel
And the tears in their eyes
When the pain is too real

Reminds me of "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd.  It comes and goes, you know?
nice job

Very nicely writ and I can feel the pain.  And I understand a little.  you're interesting.  Besides the fact that you share my namesake I think you may have other things in common with me.  But what....?

I don't know what I did wrong but the fae are after me now. Faeries can be so irritable.
