Who’s Turn Is It? I ask God to please let you be mine I prayed kneeling in salty liquid even ask a witch for a spell knowing it might send fire on me and I flipped it and lit a candle in your name with it unable to sleep most nights thinking wondering why when I did sleep dreams came searching my worthiness in your face seeing you inches away and inching away who do I cry to now tired of being tired a million words attach themselves to the moon and I am somewhere here in between where are you you are worried about the take maybe this time it was all about the give and one of us being sad is too many "I am living a life, i have no wish to live. How did this happen?" Unknown |

"searching my worthiness in your face seeing you inches away" I can just feel the world going hollow with these lines.....what a poignant way to say it. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
