Leading Lying Mendacious ways A [edited by a moderator] up, falsifying maze Bleeding Crying They spend their days "These are the ones i love" she says An open heart Defence torn down Screaming spirits conceal their crown Manipulation is the key A cruel intent; Reality Science proves there is no life without hate or pain or grief or strife Why do we do these things to hurt? Why cause more anguish in others hearts? Empty tears fall from fading eyes Blindly on streets we left behind They cry out names one did forget in love or spite, hate or regret I lead I lie And in hearts that reign I forget myself and cause them pain I do these things over again I know I do I am to blame I cannot stop hurting those With open hearts which build up hopes Is it that I exploit a friend I know will forgive me in the end? Or so I think, but don't deserve Perhaps do not forgive me, then I’ll learn That granted life and love and ways In those who know us day by day Is not something to manipulate Test and punish 'til its too late I am past being an imperfection I consist of constant, cruel incantations "A momentary lapse of silence catches me unaware Reminds me that beyond the faces, through judging eyes do stare; Stands reality in all its glory; not so far away In a blink of an eye it wanders, alas it did not stay Now the rain falls And these tears do just the same Unfamiliar faces fade And I try my best to regain That feeling which overwhelmed me and brought me to my rest That showed me where my heart belonged but left me at my best" I do not wish this feeling to last I pray for days that go too fast And this breath of sweet melancholy Seeps through my veins and comforts me I do not feel at rest at all Still I feel, I fly, I fall They bleed and cry because of me A wandering, waiting catastrophe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ minusme, Please check your e-mail for my message, and respond soon.

l like, minusme. (l think l've learnt to spell this!) lol. anyway, you've got a great point about the nature of humanity, but don't feel too bad, cause we all do this at one time or another... we have to hurt others sometimes. don't ask me why, cause l don't understand it myself, but... yeah. laurie. |
