My mind overpowers my state. Failure wrote itself red on the wall. Tricking drops of wet paint run down my bedroom's wall. My eyes are barely open, but the word is inscribed on my brain. By the time the air changes, the wind will blow my chances. Occurences like this a are many, on countless occasions I stayed put. Could no even wipe it off the wall. Even if I tried,is permanent. My father used thinner, but just wasted his time. Perhaps I'll just get used to it, just like my father has. |

Occurences like this a are many, on countless occasions I stayed put ================ very powerful images and words ... this has a haunted confessional ache to it well written and expressed... allow me to welcome you to Passions if I have not yet done so. will look for more of your work take care jm Where the touch of the lover ends And the soul of the friend begins There's a need to be separate and a need to be one And a struggle neither wins |
