~)(~ slander me via your progression you pander to my lifeless form what hope of reconciliation what strength is there in sand mend me with acceptance carry me forward and beyond cancel the debt of long ago without absolution tomorrow never comes I guessed at your surmising you never truly understood I swept the demons bedridden they grasp and scratch the darkness attracts they hold me frozen in lifeless form you don't see my ghosts menacing stealing hope I tried banishing from existence the scars hold them strong birthmarks of contention I play my part insubstanial life never seems to deliver the goods are unresolved delayed or on back order often never received at all I no longer voice opinion opposition or reach for help the unending cycle - is unending no proffered help - actually helps by day the ghosts surround me at night demons lurk under my bed and inbetween is you my companion but you don't see to understand ~)(~ Written March 15th, 2002 © on Mar 15 2002 11:55 AM PST    0 • 18 • 1
