I danced along the edge of shadow and reality Ever searching for something to seem right You came behind me and wiped the traces of my footprints away I would have been dust or smoke that day Or even called you to say that I was lonely But I just couldn't bare to hear your voice The screaming never ended in my head The silence never broke from you You locked my hands behind my back and stared into my eyes As if waiting for me to do something remarkable Blinking and rocking back and forth was all that I had left in my system I was drained and you left me there to suffer alone Somedays, I put on my trenchcoat and walk down the streets looking for the footprints that you were suppose to leave so that I could follow you I danced along the edge of shadow and reality Ever searching for something to seem right This time you didn't show to wipe my feet...

Kinda creepy. It was pretty cool. Sometimes I feel stupid for saying everything is cool, but the writers here are freaking good. -GIS Corruption is caused by holes in obedience to God. |

Ladycat... I have to say, honestly, I cried through out this whole peice. My husband was my savior from a deep depression and here recently he left me to be someone I had no idea he was. I've tried to search for that person I once knew and he is nowhere to be found. We have a beautiful little girl and she will be lost, too. He left me for another woman which I would think he has nothing in common with. He is my soul-mate and now I'm just waiting and wandering for him to come home but I see it nowhere in sight. Thank you for writing my heartfelt words so beautifully. And woman to woman... this hurts like hell. - Jess |
