im not so special you know,
im so ordinary,
just another man,
living life,
without a foolproof plan,
yet i dont take risks,
thats why im alone,
here in my pit,
where i throws fits,
about what went wrong,
why i took so long,
to tell my love,
my sad,sad song,
to hold her close,
and to love her most

Sometimes you wonder which is the greatest of two evils....taking risks with love, or sitting alone in the rooms of your life - knowing you're safe, yet very cold.....? You don't know how many times I've played this game with myself....It's hard either way you choose....good luck my friend! I like how your poems evoke a certain thought from the reader, that's what gets me rambling on so about it!
