Whats the solution For my insanity Its my new years revolution To forget and move on One eighth of my life on this earth Was spent in love with you Desperately searching for some form of rebirth To no avail, I find emptyness What doesnt kill me now Can only make me stronger But I often I question how I will survive through this But then I think... I can handle this After all I am a man So I leave you with a quote From a favorite emo band "and i'm certain that if i drive into those trees, it would make less of a mess, than she's made of me..." Lucidity is the answer to all problems |

Ah, yes, I've been there too. Good quote. Deep, strong poem. I especially like the lines: "What doesnt kill me now Can only make me stronger". ...Living is ever like crossing rivers; finding a new life on each shore ... RJG |
