Standing In Silence...

0 posted 2003-05-15 04:13 PM



Listen to the blood,
pounding in your ears.
The beating of your heart,
is all the demon hears.

Run! Run! Run!
Its getting further away.
A chill runs up your spine,
you see it getting closer everyday.

Sooner or later you'll
fall straight to the ground.
You're almost in its clutches,
don't turn around!

Run! Run! Run!
Its getting further away.
A chill runs up your spine,
you see it getting closer everyday.

Don't look back,
you're almost there.
Fatal mistake- you see it smile,
and its teeth are bare.

Run! Run! Run!
Its getting further away.
A chill runs up your spine,
you see it getting closer everyday.

RUN!!! RUN!!! RUN!!!
Oh just keep runnin' from the pain.
Don't listen to its words,
don't ever let it gain.


Run...Run...Run...
Addicted...to running...from yourself.

If You Wanna See A Rainbow, You've Gotta Live Through The Rain. And If You Wanna See Through Love, You've Gotta Live Through The Pain.

Woah... I clicked on that topic expecting another incredibly typical addiction something.

I haven't read a lot of what you've written, but of what I have... that's definitely one of your best.

GOOD job!

Amazingly you managed to avoid the cliche of what I was expecting to read. I have read a lot of your work, although I can't say I've replied to it all... I found this to be enticing.. it kept me wanting to read.  VERY NICE JOB!!!

I really like this poem

"Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up; these are the best days of our lives"

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
