    thanks.

    Pushing on through the cold
    Every breath I'm feeling older
    Race to the prize
    Pieces in a box

    Set me free set me free
    All I need is just to believe

    The cold air shatters glass
    Vocabulary evacuates a mac
    Race to the abandon
    Fields of joy

    River dry brain
    Escaping strain
    Heartbeat races
    Think I cracked my spine
    I really may have cracked my spine

    My heart sank
    Legs are numb
    Heartbeat races on
    And I think I may have cracked my spine

    i miss u
    i do
    i will
    miss u

    i always do




    river dry shakes
    escaping hell
    heartbeat braces
    think i might have died

    my heart shines
    i give u mine
    heartbeat keeping time
    and i think i might have died

    i miss u
    i do
    i will
    miss u

    i always do

    thanks !

    the light
    is bright
    it's alright
    to hide away
    i'll make my way
    away from here
    the current shifts
    the depth is this
    the light
    is bright
    it's alright
    to shine away
    i'll search for you
    away from here


    goodnight
    goodbye

    Drifting further away
    Spirit not afraid
    Just another day
    Drifting further away
    Scenery of space
    Time sound of place

    I wish I could stay
    I wish we could play
    The elevated state
    Spirit not afraid
    Just another day
    Drifting further away

    I was driving
    Arrived on time
    I was flying
    It was Devine
    I was sailing
    Thought I'd drown
    But I'm still here
    Coming down

    I went walking
    Spent my keep
    Had no sorrow
    In too deep
    Ran to save life
    My iron lung died
    Thought I'd ride
    But the truth lied

    And here I am
    A distant second
    Third wheeling
    Drug dealing
    Stealing love
    If given
    I'll take
    Getaway

    The bridges have crumbled to the ground
    The fire in the sky keeps my head down
    Just waiting for a change to reassure hope
    I might be waiting longer than I can cope
    The exit plays loud as a note
    From a message to a declaration
    I don't know

    as i lay down my shivering begins
    where it started where it ends
    reach out like wingspan
    of the center
    falling down into a pit

    as i fly away like a reindeer
    red as a bright light
    in the fog
    i will find my gift in the center
    holding you again
    holding on to friends

    the reality is death
    the answers are fatal
    the reality is clamped
    the answers are fatal
    the reality is dramatic
    the answers are fatal

    Never meant that group of sad words for you .heaven forbid.  youve been around forever. 
    And with this coupling of words i must say

    Where are you stacey?  
    Where are you now
    Have you built a house
    With stars coming down
    I mean
    On the side
    A virtual star
    Wherever you are
    You can jump
    In my car
    And we could drive
    To the west side
    Leaving our lives behind
    Leaving the memories
    For good and bad
    We would have each other
    To look forward toe
    Just the stars
    And the car

    The memory of sanity
    A taste of freedom
    All is lost
    Without you
    The present tense
    Is yesterday's sense
    Without you here
    I play in the rain
    Listening to the birds
    But not live
    For that's the way
    Without you
    I got no tomorrow
    No yesterday
    I only have
    This stupid tape

    Silly love poem

    Sadness has a strong grip
    Taking away my will to live
    Give and give 
    I need the give
    Death has taken my life
    Down on the down
    Now i must turn
    Towards the light
    And blow out the candle
    Of my night

    Days go by
    I am bored
    I wish i was young
    Believed in the lord

    Now I'm smart
    Believe in denial
    Gaining momentum
    It's the style

    I'd lift you up
    If i was strong
    I'd give you up
    If i didn't belong

    So close
    Spirits remain
    But i can't gather
    The end of your pain

    Love is strong
    Love didn't belong
    In a moment
    Gone wrong

    That's why i die
    With every thought
    Love in your eyes
    I just drift away

    Its ok...sadness...what we all do...sometimes one just has to literally shake... it...off...movement...paying attention to the things...if the doing of that thing hurts..dont do that thing...or do that thing less...I am also very depressed...and am struggling to stay...tuning in to the glowing parts of your poems has helped me to release some of the sadness that I cannot easily express...although it has also freaked me out a bit at how low I can go and deeply I feel and how much I relate to the sadness in your poems...learning to face it full frontal and walk through it...music heals greatly for me..something that I think that is common to the people on these boards... to quote the po'girls...nothing is easy...no one is easy...let me go easy...when it gets hard...I wish you peace and send you love dear Shyner..

    I am feeling okay after reading you here. 
    Im sure tomorrow ill have to shake off the things that own my nerves. Im a nerve and stomach pained person trying to fight through many catastrophic diseases handed to loved ones. 

    I guess we all have a disease called life. 
    Im having problems turning my brain off. 

    Thank god for music. God gave rock n roll to us.

    Got a gun
    In my hand
    Got it loaded
    Im the man
    Pull the trigger
    Close my eyes
    Close my eyes
    Pull the trigger
    One day said
    Your bigger
    Than me
    But now with
    My gun
    How could
    That be
    Pray for forgiveness
    Laugh at the crime
    Fmj looks delicious
    I feel like dying
    Im a slab
    Burn me up
    Blame is hate
    Remember love
    When your
    Rebooting the system
    To tease the boy
    Ill be in heaven
    Make you real
    Is what i will do
    In your honor
    I will
    Rest

    I am free
    I am tired
    I am wired
    Start a fire
    Make it home
    A place
    Your gone
    Maybe I'll join you
    On the sun
    Where is love
    Where is hope
    Maybe I'll find
    Wherever
    I go
    I don't know
    Stomach turns
    Depression burns
    Locked me out
    Now i steal
    The heart you gave
    Wasn't real
    I'm thankful
    For good

    The shades go down
    The lights go out
    Another lonely day
    Without you
    I try to move on
    Forget all the wrong
    One foot in front
    One foot lost
    Disease banging on the door
    I can't take anymore
    It's silly to explore
    Creation in me bores
    Do you wanna fly
    I surely see it
