You are without passion
Steadily walking on stilts
A balancing act to keep up hope
The outcome of the scenario
Plays itself out on this tight-rope
Strangling the prospects of fame
The actor of fortune
The writer, The lover
Reinvented the game
Set this whole production
Right up in a ball of flame
Without ever getting caught
Never giving up his name
There is nothing left to fear,
No reason left to cry
There is a voice in your ear,
Telling you its your time to die
There is an ache in your stomach
As you kneel over and close your eyes
There comes a time
When the question
Is answered simply with no reply

Although I normally not a fan of this style of poetry, this one caught my eye. I really like the ending. Sometimes nothing, just silence, can say much more than any words could, but you show that to us on paper =) (err, html...). I though it was going to be a sad poem at first, but it's really full of an odd combination of longing, sorrow, and hope. Well, that's how I feel, not that that's a bad thing =P. Good job. |

Intriguing. Lots of layers, like peeling an onion. I have noticed this was the beginning of a rocky time for you. I am happy you found your way back.
