Days, minutes, seconds fly by i wonder around at the way side the smiles and laughter without a care i see past their lies but do i dare tempted to open blinded eyes but i realize that we live our lies despite i set a mission from now till then right now it starts, right now i begin without a clue where to start or go i can't explain how this will work, i just know so set back and tell me i will fail i've heard it before, though i will prevail darkened is my heart from what i see the lies we live with such zelous glee please take to heart and make it thine look at your watch, you're almost out of time There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line. -- Oscar Levant "Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live." |

"so set back and tell me i will fail i've heard it before, though i will prevail" Nice flow and rhythm in this piece Hoppy! A thought-provoking read, with an "I will prevail" positive attitude ... you've expressed yourself well in this piece. ![]() Best wishes, /Kit |

Hey. I missed this one before, and it's great. Just thought it was definitely worthy of a lil nudge to the top.. ~Carly "I see," said the blind man to his deaf wife reading the newspaper. |

Just would like to once again say that this was great. ![]() "I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust." I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

The word great has already been used, so i'll add that it was really really really good. That's the same as great but only in differen't words ![]() "tempted to open blinded eyes but i realize that we live our lies" "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Me!! |

hey everyone, wow i had forgotten i'd even written this poem on here ![]() One of those times when your life seems dead....and with a dead life your writing can be no greater than the silence your living so i've not written in a while. Though i hope i can get back into it soon. I might post some older stuff if asked ![]() Happy writing to all There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line. -- Oscar Levant "Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live." |

One of thebest written poems I've ever read in Passions....I'll rate this the way I rated the other ones that i loved.."This should be Published" -- that's my rating "the smiles and laughter without a care i see past their lies but do i dare tempted to open blinded eyes but i realize that we live our lies" I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |
