As time has sunk like evening's sun
past parades of glory, forcasts of doom,
As logic tires of what's left undone
you live still within me in a safe, distanced room.

Away from the circus and dreams that I spin.
Far from the rapture you once cast my way.
The something that smoldered and could not begin
Mocks somber on purpose in all that I say.

If not for the blood that spilled from sky,
When no-fault damage of your soul stole in
I may not have found the innocent tie
That our short lived friendship allowed me to win.


I can't control
my destiny
I trust my soul,
my only goal
is just to "be"
-Lyrics from RENT

God, how this struck a chord....it was as if it were written from my own hand.

Irish Rose, It feels good to have someone relate to this. It was very hard to attempt to get my feeling to come through on this one... Thank you...


Peppermint..Thanks for the feedback. There is saddness in this. Thank Goodness this is not saddness I carry everywhere.

MistletoeAngel, Thank you so much for such kind words. It meant very much to me to read them.
