why stop counting the reasons
and now there is no leaving
because what is the point..? of staying and breathing?

please,with regrets on the wall

please, with the answers i fall

soon i lost my vision.. then i seen you living
as beautiful as hell could be
believed you were here with me..and you held me loose..and i spilled my thoughts
and through your eyes  i see

we are born to feel this free

why do we whisper when we're all alone..
its all in my head dear..its all in my head

when i clutch my  escaping mind.. to my chest
i still wish it was you..that i find

but whats any other sane man to do?

when everything he feels is dead or dying
..and he wishes he was too



"you can have my isolation..you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith..you can have my everything"

"so impressed with all you do..tried so hard to be like you..flew too high and burnt the wing..lost my faith in everything"

"I am too connected to you to
Slip away, to fade away.
Days away I still feel you
Touching me, changing me,
And considerately killing me."

The Jackal

The reasons for life are uncountable my friend, if I started now I'd never finish.
this is a very heartfelt poem, very sad, and god I have been within it's grasp before.

Joel.

I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

jac,
this poem is AMAZING and effects me deeply..
it is one of your best and definatly one of my favs of yours
every single line ... oh man....PERFECT...
the intensity of which you feel your emotions
is very evident in this.
your ache and desperation lifts of the page.
exceptional writing, truly.
I hope you find new strength and healing
in your words...
and in your talent...you have a gift my friend.
your signature is perfect as well,
take care poet

It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and you lose it all ...
And it's unnerving
(How one move just puts me by myself)
There you go just trusting someone else
(Now I know I put us both through hell) ...
I'm not sayin
That there was nothing wrong
(I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me)
And I'm not sayin
(We ever had the right to hold on)
(I just didn't wanna let you get away from me)

She says baby,
It's 3AM ... I must be lonely,
When she says baby,
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it.
