I haven't been here in months. Anyway for those who know me, things are going good.  I'm happier now then ever with Jamie and things really seem like they are going to turn out well this time.  I wrote this in a really happy mood and even though it's kind of emo I guess (ok it is!) I'm not sure why it came off so sad sounding.  Funny that huh?  Anyway some of you might catch a refernece to some of my other stuff in there as well.  Ah well catch you all later sometime.

And ya I'm still as bad as ever about making up titles.


To be with you, I’ve done nothing
But here you are with arms wide open
Reminding me to care, reminding me to feel
Maybe we could leave
And show our hidden scars
In the dark places we’ll bleed for each other
And heal and laugh and smile.

We’ve both been wronged and seen too much
And shattered glass dreams and puppet strings
Have been our only feast.  
I ate my fill and left to live inside
A hermit to the world without.
Until you found me looking down
And pushed me off the cliff

Can you see me falling now?
It’s the sweetest feeling I’ve ever known
Fall with me, it’s much deeper then it looks
And the ride down will be better for two
I can hear you calling
It’s not so hard, close your eyes and jump
I’ll trust you like you trust me and keep you safe

Smile my baby, I’m here to hold you close
And laugh with me, nothing can hurt us now
Not the landing, not the fall and not the world
We can drown them all in smiles
How would they like that?
We can be everything they aren’t
We can be everything, together.

And when our days are near the end
And twilight is setting in
We will still be happy and content
Our long lives together over and spent
You will hold me close and smile
I’ll kiss you and breathe you in knowing
I did nothing and you loved me still.

I really like this. often you see how "I" stood there, and "you've" done nothing to deserve it. I like how this is switched. I like your style of writing, its great.

Wow...  This was amazing.

And it's great to see you back here...  I've missed your work.  

Thanks for sharing.
