*Restless* Shut the door and lock it up real tight. Stay up and pace the floor all night. Out the window, i watch the city's lights. and i wonder if there is any peace Can we make out there on our own? Can we still play when our cards are shown? Can i weather being all alone? i wonder if the umbrella has room for me I miss her smile; i miss her eyes. Think of her when the storms come by... I promise to say to try not to cry. and i wonder why she means so much to me When angels fly to close to ground, a crash is where their journey's bound. But if i'm the angel and you bring me down, why am i trying to clip your wings I missed my chance says my memory. And maybe that's the way it had to be. I hope with you, you take a piece of me. and i wonder if Me will find its peace Everyone's got their demons. We all got somethin' to atone for. |

Wow, Ethan. I can definitely relate to this. But, at least you've been strong enough to let go. Some of us aren't. Great writing! sp |

thank you all for reading and especially for the understanding. it's like an empty plateau right now... and i'm not sure where i'll go. thanks for enjoying it. snowpants: you're right, strength is the hard part. gotta face those demons some time. tennessee angel: why thank you! it's hard to find regulars in this joint, i think. i'll reply to one of yours if i catch it! vlraynes: your most welcome. thanks for stoppin by to read! jmlee12345: they say if eyes are the window to the soul, then the smile is the front door. they're the most beautiful (and honest) parts of a person. Everyone's got their demons. We all got somethin' to atone for. |
