I feel its breath light on my neck singeing the hairs resideing there I double time the race drawing away A pace further ahead of the dread It catches again though run fast as i can i fall slowely into it den i am sinking its cave of sin where all who come are lost within My life force ends as time bends to the lair of the beast there is no end And i am alone in the darkness again All hope is gone tomorrow is nolonger a friend Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace, of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd |

makes me think about love as a whole. its kinda a beast, well, in my experiences anyways. its draws you in and then it bites your head off. well written!! well said!! Trust I seek and I find in you. Everyday for us something new. Open mind for a different view, and nothing else matters. --Metallica |

All hope is gone, tomorrow no longer a friend. Love those lines Walter. Great imagery At night the moon became a face, I met the spirit of life, the spirit of love and music. And I am better for it. ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |
