My heater set on high I listen to its fan, And my typing on the keys. Eyes closed, (for lights bring pain to me) I crunch a stale tortilla chip And one more… To keep the after taste away. It’s just another lonely day… Observing every breath (because each one brings pain to me) Then choking on my tongue I catch myself in fall For I have waited too long… And now I take a sip of last week's 7up And one more… To keep the after taste away. It’s just another lonely day… - And so it was that time stood still - (blink, breathe, stand, fight) [This message has been edited by GG (10-30-2003 10:17 PM).] |

Loved it! Your writing, though different in ways, reminds me of another who used to grace this place with her words, and that, my friend, puts you in select company as far as I'm concerned. Enjoy reading you... jwesley |
