When the age of death is drawing closer In a fine line of time Constant and eternal Can I become twelve again Immature as a heroin addict Too young to know Rusted and fallen apart My face is pounded and pounded and almost hurt a bit Freedom heated pin prick of energy released Escape scrape I'm hurt again Toddlers enjoying life Ignorant of hatred alive for them forever And populate in spite Fun and play and enjoy it everyday Written when I was twelve, inside my head Influenced witnessed Once its gone its never missed Always remembered by the mark it made Bruised mascara eyes |

you can't ever go back, can ya? i find i'm asking myself that question tonight, and here i run into this verse... some wounds go too deep... they change you forever, and that shattered peace seems irreperable. maybe it is... but maybe it's worth trying to fix rather than just remembering... thanks for the thoughts this evening... and i do hope, that if this is a slice of your life, that you can find the strength that i too am searching for... the courage to try and find some kind of peace again, even with the scars and marks... We are all luminous beings, not merely crude creatures of matter. |

Life is like money... it's not how much you've got left to spend-- it's how you're going to spend it.  |

Hey thanx everybody. Maybe my expressionism isn't coming out clear but the idea was its ok to act like a "younger" person even if someone is cutting you down for it. So I agree with the ones saying its not how much its how. And thanx about the name compliment And its nice to see you again too wranx. -GIS [I appreciate your concern, you'll always stink and burn.]-Kurt Cobain |

GIS...this is excellent writing and a good idea. I think a person should be able to act any age they want. alan |
