Emersed was the stranger,
Emersed in the lights and
rides and cotton candy that
I did forget that my old loves
were around me...
Not for long though...
It seems as if Fate likes to
torment those of us who are
almost healed from our wounds..
But a smirk roused itself on the
disfigured face of mine...
Why????
Because life is short and I learned
my lesson...
If you dwell on something too long,
you become a tormented creature that
can't think or function.
Beleive you me, I know that feeling.
So as the time of the fair ends, I will
enjoy myself and be glad...

{I hope this is good}

There's a difference between knowing a path and walking that path....

i liked this a lot.  especially the beginning. some incredible images here. carnivals always have this certain air of mystery where anything could happen.

Don't take any wooden nickels
When you sell your soul
Devil lover, time awaits you
Now the party's over
You're on your own
