there was a time in my life i may never see again like a ship on the horizon slowly growing dim i hear the songs of yesterday playing in my head i see my dreams so far away slowly coming in people come and they go they never stay the same and i sit and wonder how long this one will remain memory lane, take me away back to the good places i've been show me the way, call out my name carry me back, memory lane i saw your gentle face today as it flashed through my mind just like it was so long ago but neatly froze in time i'll always need a friend, one i can defend. |

ahh yes. To wish that what was once could still be. I've been there, so many times. The future just never seems as great as parts of the past. Very nicely written. |

If this isn't lyrics from a song you've written, then shame on you. You succeeded in taking me back to places I've been, and I'll read this one over and over again just to go there. Kinda made me want to move to that street, as this one I'm on sorta sucks. A most "memorable" write, and that wasn't meant to be such a bad cliche as to make you want to freeze me in time. KUDOS! Lose one friend... Lose all friends... Lose Yourself... |

Beautiful. Nice work. Hollow. I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World. |

Yes this is true. I guess thats what reminds us of the fact that what we choose is our choice and we are the ones that will truly be stuck with whatever outcome. -GIS He has made everything beautiful in its own time. -Ecclesiastes 3:11 |

I read this poem again, and it means even more to me now. Thank you, it was beautiful. Hollow. Courts. I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World. |

This is beautiful doll... it's one that I had to read a couple of times because I truly adore it. Our scars are the foundation for what we have become |
