Well, it's me again, to add one more poem, to the plethora of poetry.

~Falling out of reach~
A sigh leaves my soul,
As my heart continues the monontonous beating,
The beat of a life that I do not have,
FOr I must say goodbye to you,
I've already fallen from a grace,
A grace that could not keep up to the pace,
Lost all face to that very pace,
Trying to be a love to you,
Write love through soul on paper to you,
When it all is wrong,
None of the love was taken,
Left alone to a world that I've forsaken,
So now,
From you I shall begin,
Falling out of reach,
Because I'm a fool to think,
That you and I could be,
Fooled myself not to see,
That he was far better then me,
Far better then I could ever be,
So I now say goodbye to thee,
As it is time for me,
To begin to fall away from you,
To give true,
Distance away from you as I begin,
Falling out of reach,
To never say I love you again,
Never again to you,
Never again,
For I love you,
And can not bare to see you,
To speak to you,
So I must give into the world that deems me,
Forsaken from the shadow to give into a light,
So I must say goodbye and begin,
Falling out of reach.

I bleed, you all read, and may the blood never stop spilling for loss of emotion would be all too damning.
~Joel

My apologies Sunshine, although I know that your intent is to better the way my writing is presented and how it is read.  It is but a habit, far be it a bad one.  Anyway, I'll see how it sounds aloud tonight before I head off to bed, and try to, work things out, as far as my writen problems go.

I bleed, you all read, and may the blood never stop spilling for loss of emotion would be all too damning.

I'm with Sunshine on this one...commas at the end of every sentance tend to be overwhelmingly distracting. I like the topic of this one, perhaps just a bit of fine tunning
