Just to work Lift your hatered of me Swallow your words And I fall in to this hole Arms wide open Shave off my morality Loosing immortality Dying for you mouth Relax to the flow But I can still hear your voice Moving like a machine A hard beatting Smooth on a soundboard When are you going to die? Let me lower you into that hole Helping toss the dirt Making sure its packed tight Your pictures no longer litter the house Like a fresh life A misty spring I'm so happy I want to run and dance And never stop Even Hell would have a difficult time killing my smile Thank you Smoke another cigarette please Compared with atheism Fool Can I live and love now? Be alive And do it freely No more fear of the morning Which only left fearing night And this simpleton is still happy If she could be instead of him Don't you adore my rotten heart? Doing the same thing a million times in a row will definitely affect your head. Read and pratice and read and pratice and read and prati........ead a [This message has been edited by green_itchy_stuff (11-28-2004 10:54 PM).] |

"Even hell would have a difficult time killing my smile" seems that even amidst the torture of your everyday battle, you still let even the smallest amount of hope shine through. i treasure this line, and i can truly see that smile! you did, however, hit home a few times with this one...the title, the commanding of the smokes (interesting that an easy way to seek someone's death is to enjoy them smoking one more... hadn't really stopped to think this before) and of course, craig, then there's the last two lines, which for me, as you know, are taken a different way. thank god my parents don't battle with me verbal judgements. this was a deep poem that made me pause to contemplate. hope today sheds new light... hope today sheds new life... happy friendship day! (that's everyday) mike of all the things we try to find... it's only love we keep. |

"Can I live and love now? Be alive And do it freely No more fear of the morning Which only left fearing night And this simpleton is still happy" Yes you can, and I'm glad you are still! Another poignant piece of the dramatic puzzle that is green and itchy and you know, stuff. lol GREAT! Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere |

I must have missed this gem in the treasure chest, because oh my, this was gleaming! It was really really good Craig, I like this one, I don't know why, I must reread it, lol. Hollow Courtney. Oops. I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World. |
