Alone I cry and tears cover these blood-orange cheeks two single lines of pain showing of 'my life, my sorrow' I walk the hazel of this land stooped like death where grass and branches scratch at my skin they form tiny tracks of nothing not even my brows are amused they remain straight and thick over shattered sight my mind bruises against the uneven edges of 'this reality this silence' and what remains are only the memories I'm my own stranger complete with blurry reflections of a childhood I once knew In my darkness I fade away the sun rise is wasted and it's setting pale only the moon though dim tweaks a glow in the filmy night to comfort me |

Oh wow this one hit me hard. Well done the two of you!!!!!! That came out even better than I ever expected it to....you two worked quite well together. Once again....wow on it. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Did you two cheat?--- Spend like hours on the phone together??--- This is really really good,, There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

This is very dramatic, lots of emotion in it... which is hard to do as a collaboration. Very well done, it's quite obvious that the two of you really connected when you wrote this. ~Allan Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. |

Wow... this one knocked me off of my feet. I can really feel the emotion in this one. Great work, you two. Thanks for sharing. "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Proof....the whole may indeed be greater than the sum of its parts. The very fact that two let their writing coalesce...that is magic. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
