I was leaning on a corner post of Colorado and 18th - I climbed onto a mid town bus that found a Seattle plane - they say I’m dangerous because I’m honest and been around can we be friends? I could hear my name on the wind suspicion was thick the roughest I’d ever seen - good-bye Colorado Springs though I’ve never known you but a little I thought I loved you all the same there comes a time when your jewels lose their glitter and the gold loses its luster & a palace becomes an empty tomb and all that is left is a prison and a love that you can neven afford even the children who’ve grown or been taken and far away gone at times I sit gazing through my window into the nights and see two figures silhouette the lit street below holding hands & each other and it divides my heart to know now I find myself writing and singing to faery’s of my soul with a bleus I’m too young to know so much so soon the rainbows overdue and confessing I’m lost but masquerading a disguise I find it’s getting only harder to imagine what might have been if really it had happened touched with a tainted caring and a world of tears the best part of myself however there are times wished I could sever it from my soul but then I remember the well-spring from which it flows [This message has been edited by lucky (03-10-2002 10:30 PM).] |

Wow, what an interesting stream of consciousness. I liked the presentation as well. "they say I’m dangerous because I’m honest and been around can we be friends? I could hear my name on the wind suspicion was thick the roughest I’d ever seen - good-bye Colorado Springs though I’ve never known you but a little I thought I loved you all the same" I would love to know more about the circumstances that set these thoughts into motion. |

Dale This flowed so smothly it felt like lyrics to your heart song. Depth of emotion coming to surface in float of words. I've always loved the way you write! |
