Vincent Silver Posted September 5, 2003 Report Posted September 5, 2003 Another crushed dream Another false hope that seemed so real Another fit of sorrow Another day to go insane Love evades me yet another time Maybe I wasn't meant to have it Maybe I'm just cursed to sadness
Peredhil Posted September 5, 2003 Report Posted September 5, 2003 Maybe you're inside looking out Through a filmy filter of Need Overwhelming at first response Heart hot and willing to bleed Love often slips up unaware When you're looking at some other You think you need a thundering storm Sometimes it's a gentle cover If you hold your hand out flat Water flees and flows away If you clench into a fist Water cannot stay. Sometimes love is like that.
Peredhil Posted September 5, 2003 Report Posted September 5, 2003 laughs it's funny to me - I've thought that out for years, so to me it reads as contrived. I liked Vince's better.
Tattered Posted September 6, 2003 Report Posted September 6, 2003 Oh my gosh! Peredhil. I don't know how to say this, but your words, they, I, I am so so so touched. I don't even know, I think you didn't realize, how could you? I just feel like, wow. YES! I want to scream. Where did you come from?That is all I can say. Vincent, Yes love is harsh. Even the best of love can have a heart dangerous, sketchy path before it. When in the midst of the sorrow, I could not see hope on the morrow. The only kind of love worth wanting is the kind of love that lasts forever. And the only love that lasts forever is full of compramise and hard work together. People change, and grow, and decided against previous ideas. So for two separate people to become united, it's not small effort, nor dream, but a miracle. Yet even when a person plans and prepares and changes to fit just right with another, there are no guarantees. It's a complicated thing. I don't know that you needed to read all of that. But I just had to. Basically, I have felt like love is life or death, NO I have KNOWN it was. But when I wiped my tears and turned on the lights and stopped holding my breath, I saw I was still alive. Although it took some time, and still haunts some nights, I know I yet have the strength to shine. SO I changed my mind and decided to live and not give up inside.
