Anaesthetic.

One... Two... Three... Four... Five...
I’m breathing still alive,
Six... Seven... Eight.... Nine
Everything is going fine...
Ten... Eleven... Twelve... in pain,
See your eyes hurting again,
Thirteen... Fourteen... drifting away,
Watcing the world swing and sway,
Fifteen... Sixteen... Seventeen again,
Cannot make my feelings plain,
Eighteen... and my life starts to end,
Here comes our time we start to blend.

IT was ok....not my fav by you. It was a good idea, but still....I think you could have done this one a bit better.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Zu, I have to agree with Dopey. I thought it was a really great idea, but the intenseness(if that is a word) of the poem dwindled after the first two lines. It was OK, but I have seen better from you.

Hmmm Zu...The rhyme from the numbers really gave it that extra something. I'm going to add it to my library for the simple fact I really want to delve into this a bit more.

Thanks for the read.

well Zu, this isn't your best piece, but it's still good in almost every respect.
I still like it, if my opinion counts for anything, that is.

I'm just glad that now this rainstorm has ended, and I can see the rainbow once again.
