explain it, I cannot but I do know how to say it say it, I cannot but I do know how to feel it feel it, I cannot but I do know how to show it show it, I cannot but I do know how to share it share it, I cannot but I do know how to explain it explain it, I cannot but I do know how to cry and so I do and so, I do |

A frustration written for the emotions of a poet trying to explain the frustration of emotions. So I too do. Loved it! Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

sometimes I think I've lost my memory because of all that alcohol but no, I am blessed indeed, for always being able to express myself, at times on an even deeper level than I realized...and for expressing what others could not for themselves. So if I died tonight, I'd go with a smile on my face, just for simple reasons like this. |
