where the wild flowers grow

0 posted 2003-06-25 08:22 PM


Time slips by and I haven't
quite
measured out how far my sight can
reach.
To you,
I can't be saved.
Tame my thoughts so crimson licking,
double ended tongue, I curse..for my
words
are demons.
Lashing, thrashing - enveloped in what you called
love..

Today,
I sat beneath a tree and by it's spirit..
and so far, solitude is a walk I'd rather go alone.

Still, my words cause great
infliction, though I've found my place.
My ever present echo
grows around you, unaware of the pain.
I remain like a sympathetic ghost..

My eyes melt in the pearls of your perfection..
And I could no longer live through
this infection..

To you,
I have no hope.
Today, I'd rather go
alone.

I said I'm going to buy a gun and start a war,
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
