My pulse is in my scars skin so perfectly marred pain so exsquisitly carved that my nightmares call it art The voices are applauding me with all their personalities My fingers trace the marks complementing my insanity I told you I was losing something so try to continue smiling Not so easy when you're watching me bleed now that you've taken the last thing I need I'm laughing out loud like you did before crying my misery onto the floor You're too afraid to look at me too stunned to speak as you lock the door So this is what you broke me for "I don't need to scream for you to deem me aggravation."

This is a very nice write, Shay At first blush, one could think that it has "cutting" references in it. But, it doesn't, does it? Cause, it would probably get moderated into oblivion if it did. So, I'll say that I like the way you use scarring metaphorically. Done in a way that everyone can relate to. ~wranx [This message has been edited by wranx (07-30-2003 10:35 PM).] |

"I told you I was losing something so try to continue smiling Not so easy when you're watching me bleed now that you've taken the last thing I need" -loved this stanza, fantastic write... "in a past life i was a woodcarver's knife: the sharpend blade of a wood cutter, the eldest son of the chief's brother: a maker of drums" |

If someone liked it, then it was worth writing. Thank you for giving me that satisfaction. "I don't need to scream for you to deem me aggravation." |
