there was no time to dry my cheeks i know what it is you really want. so i ran deep into the trees and hoped they'd consume me continually skipping the beats blame the mirror not it's reflection I've given you nothing but the distant cold wonder no hope I am holding you down I've lost my sight I know nothing of the blood I've lost by loving the one soul that could never love me back.. my hair is not blonde my eyes are not wide my dialect is not foreign to you.. Mine is the heart that always shatters, mine are the words that reek with redundancy.. There are only so many ways to tell you.. this is just who I am and who I'll always be. In love with you regardless of the fact that I am not what you really want.. Though my devotion is in no consistant pattern, I have shown you nothing but. And now I fear the end before it's even come down to this.. My skin may shed but until you've bled my blood, my love, you'll not understand the pain it's caused knowing... everything I'll never be. |

I'm in no way insulting you here...youmovemelady. keeping it. oh and do it again  pleaseeeBeauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.

"My skin may shed but until you've bled my blood, my love, you'll not understand the pain it's caused knowing... everything I'll never be." Yes, you do know how to make a reader feel it.. "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |

Meghan, your poetry makes me fumble around trying to think of the words to tell you how it makes me feel. I can't, so just know that I love the way you write. It really touches me, Meg. |

I like it, even though parts of it deal with more morbid and dark subject matter, parts of it retain a "new agey" vibe to it. |
