all the pretty things are free feel the rise ..isolate me raise the expectations high drown that ghost and never question why make it feel incomplete give a reason present defeat judge the fallen become intense spread your everything but wear it all underneath.. simple pleasures never mine im the TYPE of empty person that wont survive the test of time.. |

I was scrolling down the list and I saw your poem only had one response, so I thought I'd reply to rescue it and give it a second chance. Well, I've just finished reading it and I thought it was absolutely beautiful! Your choice of words and the flow of them add real meaning and depth to your piece. you've given me a lot to think about anyway. Keep up the good work. ![]() |
