Sometimes heartaches are too big And won’t fit on the roads Leading from here to someplace Just west of midnight where the drinks Or the company or someone else Will drive them away For an hour or two When that happens Seems like the days are long And the nights filled with Star dust that scratches Corneas until we are blind In certain light Invisible in other I don’t mind that it hurts And I don’t mind being blinded It’s the invisible that kills me So… here we are Humans all facing the same emotional cracks the same grainy abrasions from our rubbing up against others and always finding a reason to leave on one side or the next… all with scars showing our red badges displayed proudly or meekly or sadly for all to see in their passing Come to think of it… Maybe Invisible isn’t so bad After all…. |

Your words invisible as you might want them are light to the rest of us... keep spilling... |

(big hugggsssss) Oh Ron, this is so very heartfelt, sweet friend, I too would prefer to be invisible in these kind of cases too I suppose so then others wouldn't have to see the fatal scars! (sad sigh) This is powerfully moving, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I don’t mind that it hurts And I don’t mind being blinded It’s the invisible that kills me What a great verse Cpat~ invisible can be taken all kinds of ways! We weave our own cloth, both the underside and outer layers.... It's a defense mechanism that helps to protect our vulnerabilities and shield our insecurities. We see what we want to see anywhoo! Have a good weekend! Huggers~ |

When that happens Seems like the days are long And the nights filled with Star dust that scratches Corneas until we are blind In certain light Invisible in other I don’t mind that it hurts And I don’t mind being blinded It’s the invisible that kills me So… here we are Humans all facing the same emotional cracks the same grainy abrasions from our rubbing up against others and always finding a reason to leave on one side or the next… ============================== youre not invisible when youre a reflection in my mirror. You just wrote it that way. [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (02-28-2003 09:11 PM).] |

"I don’t mind that it hurts And I don’t mind being blinded It’s the invisible that kills me" along with the ending, is awesome! |
