great unknown
all I'll never grasp
fruit of wisdom
written,
made,
created,
lived around me
see me for what i am
a mere being,
another lonely soul
on a quest for
your secrets and thruth,
the fat of the land,
while exceding excess,
but who will settle for love
your light's reflected now

    well.... it was written after a very filled weekend of everything, hence the fat of the land.. fat of the land also implies "rich enough to enjoy the best of everything", think about 'soon forget' thats not my goal.. once that 'one love' is found, i'll be more than willing to let the exceding excess lifestyle go. make sense?
    touching read? thanks! :)

    it's a fat poem....some suicidal tendency in me....tell me this is a 'fat' poem....a noteworthy peom.....in teh way others are not.....what is our lot....this or that?
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    I sense alot of yearning in this piece, keep em coming!

    im not sure but that sure sounds like a very kind thing to say, even tho some suicidal tendency is saying it..

    Abookamongstthemany.. there's a lot indeed u dont know.. e.g. i really like olives.. :) yearning...

    here goes:
    i wanna
    fill ur passion
    like u fuel mine
    be more because of u
    a better man
    dream our dreams as 1
    fushion of mind and soul
    while on seperate paths
    uniting our differences

    yearning discerning
    deceiving achieving
    receding retreating
    hearts faster beating
    coming and going
    toing and froing
    settle...settle
    only settle for love

    :)

    settle for love
    catch love
    get off at the station
    there is no privation
    in being torn apart
    by love
    in being sworn
    in being sworn
    to love

    :)

    trapped on a sleepy train
    no stopping me
    events passing by
    at ridiculous pace
    hard not to mention
    difficult to interpret
    the circus of feeling
    lingers in my mind
    arent i making sense
    or is it the world around me?
