Heartbreaktown By: Noah Eaton 1/3/01 You were still You were gone You were jaded You were lost You became dirty A soiled dove You were a sunrise Without a destiny or love I hope you come around I remember you used to speak so easy Now you're afraid to talk to me My heart goes out to you In the city limits of Heartbreaktown The ferris wheel is sleeping and tumbledown What can we say to our children this time? How can I urban-renewalize? There has to be a lodestar in the sky tonight You were free Out of sight You were quiet Terrified You were blind I couldn't see You were raped of innocence You were bleeding Here in the slums of Heartbreaktown There are hoodlums on the street and the carnivals singing aloud Will I ever see you again anyhow? I don't know where you're going yet But I pray you'll find out Lights off, walking on broken glass Treading on the remnants of your broken past You're over my head again tonight Reaching out to you while you're all alone I hear you crying over the telephone You're over my head again tonight She's always on my mind I can hear her cry I can hear her cry tonight Christ, all this time I've tried I can hear her cry I can hear her cry tonight Lights off, walking on broken glass Treading on the remnants of your broken past You're over my head again tonight Reaching out to you while you're all alone I hear you crying over the telephone You're over my head again tonight You say you can't grow You say you've gone cold All I know Is I'm always here for you You say you can't grow You say you've gone cold All I know Is I'm always here for you You've ran away In disarray You've ran away... In disarray... [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (01-03-2002 10:00 PM).] |

Noah darling boy, YOU'VE just joined the crying list for sure I have tears rolling down my face, HOW can you do this to me? Hmmmm? Wonderful writing, please don't make me sob anymore. I love the poem but it's so sad    Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Aw, NOah such a sad poem, something which I don't see very much from you. Your heart is always filled with so much love, so much to spread around the world many times over. It saddens me to hear of your sadness. I hope soon you will be in high spirits again, with kind and loving care. The poem here was beautifully written, I could see everything happening with your imagery. Great writing here Noah! From your good friend Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |

Noah, "I don't love you anymore!" You made me cry as you raised these echoes of my past. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Your compassion breaks my heart  My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write. |

Noah, this is so incredibly sad....I enjoyed it a lot, it read to me almost like a song would be sung. Very lyrical. Wonderful writing, keep it up, dear one!  *Krista Knutson* |

I resided in heartbreaktown for too long and I can only hope that the stay will be brief...perhaps just a short stay in the heartbreak hotel...James |
