As I crawl across the floor

Breathing dust,

From my shoes

Choking....gagging,

On the past tracks of so many others

It's so cold down here,

Where no one can look up to you

Or would,

Even if they could

The light under that door,

Looks so inviting ,

Is it my salvation,

Or only Hell's crimson glow

The light under that door,
Looks so inviting ,

kind of like the grass is always greener...well, at least it made me think of that *s

~Wynter

"For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart.
It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

Wow...I believe this is the first I've read from you and this is very intense my friend (I LIKE intense...smile) The tone of ambiguous feeling and self questioning is very thought provoking...enjoyed this much!
