tears falling to the floor the stains on the wood will remain to remind you of every little mistake i've made big enough or small enough to make me cry does that make me weak? pathetic in your eyes? as im contorted in the corner a picture of pain on my face does it tell a thousand words? or just the ones you want to hear? basking in my self pity trying to wipe the tears away to look strong to you to forget the reasons why i'm even here I'll be alright Won't I? maybe, when the light's are turned back on I'll have dried my eyes and I can look normal for you so you won't or can't be embarrassed of me but then you will find the tear stained floor and all my efforts will be thrown back to the ground as i watch you scowl in resentment and i feel the tears coming back but still all i am to you is weak and pathetic you're the only one keeping me alive |

I don't know what to make of this. It's easy to type in a whole lot of lyrics that are related to the feelings you pen. And that is what I've been doing, but those are not my words, and that is not what I want to say. That isn't feedback, that's a more interesting way to say "I feel exactly the same." My friend, maybe we need to polish that floor, so the tears slide right off it. Or maybe you should wait so when that room is flooded and there's no more space to cry, you'll just stop. Grrr, hugs all around, completely loved it, ohmigod it was so well written, heart was aching. No more to be said. Hollow. Courtney. Hollow. Courtney. You just got to see me through another day My body's achin' and my time is at hand And I won't make it any other way [This message has been edited by Hollow_Emptiness (12-16-2004 10:59 PM).] |

I hope it's just because it's the holidays that you've stopped posting. I hope you have alot of poems to share with us up your sleeve. I miss seeing your name on the board. Writing helps you understand your feelings, I heard that on TV. Anyway! Write! Mwah! Courts. You just got to see me through another day |

a picture of pain on my face does it tell a thousand words? or just the ones you want to hear? Wow, I Loved This SO Much. "Trina" Happiness Runs From Me, For I Am It's Enemy, Anyone Who Has It, Is Someone I Envy... |
