See what I have and listen
Good life and good things
Means nothing to anyone
To one person it does
That person isn’t alive
Me

You ask then why is she typing
I thought she was dead
Confusion yes?
I am dammit…
Me

I like mirrors that surround
You look anyway and see all
So many quick turns of the head
But then the one look straight into the depth
Me

That’s when I put my hands out
Grasping the mirror
Straight ahead into those eyes
Deep breath
It’s just you
Me…
i have to remain at top sassiness, even though my inner sass is struggling

    I liked the way this piece almost felt like a conversation.... like I was hearing two people talking to each other, only not two people, just you...

    The way this piece flows as something so comfortable, simplistic, and clear just really is refreshing. I like the way you structured this one, and the way you chose your words.

    Very good, Schlitzy. :)

    nice
    I've found the secret thread of the pretty ladies
    The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway, is that its you, and that you're standing in the doorway.

    I write down good reasons to freeze to death in my spiral ring notebook. But in the long tresses of your hair--I am a babbling brook.

  • I like that, Schlitz
    It's so real sounding, and nice to read. I can just see you at the mirrors. I want to yell out from the distance:
    "You are alive!!":D
