She sat on the edge of our bed
silently weeping into her hands
Sunlight crept into the room
through cracked blinds on the window
Her aged blond hair was almost white
but it looked like the day we meet, in this light
Her wrinkled hands were still, milky smooth
Like a dried rose, they maintained their beauty
softly trembling under the pressure of her tears
She cried for the ills of humanity
She cried for the loss of innocence
She cried because I was a spiteful old man
and I just sat there, rigid, arms at my sides
staring blankly at her blond-white hair
and her trembling hands
Sitting in my torn shorts
wondering why I hadn’t been feed
She deserved better

Passion fuels my love
Passion becomes consumed by my love
Without my love I become passionless

This is beautiful, Garrett!!!  I loved the way you also adressed the world's problems with her own.  The imagery you used was kick-arse... I really, really liked this.  I can't wait to see more, hopefully soon!

I wish your fingers could touch all I can't say... no one should ever feel this alone.
