..........................

violet ray

Long, lost words whisper slowly to me,
Still can't find what keeps me here.
When all this time i've been so hollow inside,
I know you're still there...

Watching me, wanting me,
I can feel you pull me down.
Fearing you, loving you.
I won't let you pull me down...

Hunting you i can smell you... Alive.
Your heart pounding in my head...

Watching me, wanting me,
I can feel you pull me down.
Saving me, raping me.
I won't let you pull me down...

Pull me down

violet ray

It is a pain to see the plague produced by apathy.
To see you locked and bound, you plead. To see me grasp the key.
Compassion is foreign while the tears of the broken lavish me.
Souls in anguish die, and only hell they find.
The truth to bring the peace they seek is haunting me.
I'm haunted by the fact that I neglected every time you cried
I'm haunted by the fact I concealed the truth you need inside.
I'm the one to blame.
Will I grasp the reality that my comfort has blessed the killing?
My own eyes agree of my numbing to society around me.
I can't take this; you're dying. While I watch you trying.
Every breath you heave proclaims the rejection I've conceived.
I'd hate to be the one that's not there when you cry in sorrow.
I'd hate to be the one to watch you die tomorrow.
I doubt that you are strong enough to
survive forever, inside forever.
I'd hate to be the one to watch you die.

i thought this was a joke thread when i read the title... close.

Illusion

The words left scars
After they had silenced
To see something grow
Only to die away

The illusion of you
Always so intense
Your absence of emotion
The illusion of you

Together with your kisses you dried away

All these lonely times
Gathered deep inside

The illusion of you
Always so intense
Your absence of emotion
Always so intense

violet ray

This falling Veil

I saw angels - fallen from the sky
I saw immortals - afraid to die
Time is just a moment in eternity
But every dawn seems like the last one
With silent cries my life is passing by
Like echoes from the past that slowly fade
If love is a lie, what is all for
Remember every tear I've shed for you
Still you deny what you feel for me
Your eyes can't lie to me

violet ray

Heart Laid Bare

The love we share is infected
A passion bittersweet
Dissolving to the music
A romantic act of tragedy
Moan and sigh entwined
Pale and sick and tired
In violet light embedded
Flowers greet the death of the loving

There's a beauty never known before
In this beauty we're deformed and sore

See the pain of a heart laid bare
In the strain of a heart laid bare

Dream of death, presentiment
Under a tragic sky
I close my eyes and dream away
To another year in another time
Illusion veils the face
Sleepwalkeyes of the loving
Features in melancholy
Flowers greet the death of the loving

There's a beauty never known before
In this beauty we're deformed and sore

See the pain of a heart laid bare
In the strain of a heart laid bare

this could go on forever...
i'll end it now, its not helping anyway.

i'll miss you always.


Rachel, thanks for listening to my cryptic bits and pieces.

Unseen, thanks for showing up with stories and words.

I wish I could have followed/been what you guys wanted me to.
Its not in me though.

Love you both, remember.

I was clipping this off the "under a tragic sky" line from the words above.

Now, I'm thinking I should've gotten some Fun Lovin' Criminals... (it's you, it's you, it's always been you, it's always been in you...) But hey, you know what? We are what we are! 1/2 the living glory of getting old is (funnily enough)... NOT trying to change so much as learning how to stand up for ourselves. Warts and All (but that's another band, entirely... tee hee). But not just for ourselves, but for ourselves TO ourselves... we being our own worst critics and the like....

You have been my friend when no one else could have possibly understood or appreciated what was going on. You've kept me sane when no other could. This goes way back now, doesn't it? Damn... can it be four years? Holy SMOKES. More than four! You put up with me going on and on and on and on and on and on and ON about myself and my life and my love and my X (even way back before he was my X).

If you ever want to run away from all that... you and yours welcome here. And... just a side note... the desert is wonderful for a girl's hair... you can wear it straight or curly, lol... no worries on humidity or other such meteorological nuisances... rain... shit like that...

So hey... just be kind to yourself. You're all you've got and life is too f'n short to go around bummin cuz you ain't something else. Like I said, I love you. And I wont ever forget yours, either.

Peace, mi jita

Rachel




New Year's Day

All is quiet on New Year's Day.
A world in white gets underway.
I want to be with you, be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
On New Year's Day.

I... will be with you again.
I... will be with you again.

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspaper says, says
Say it's true, it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one.

I... I will begin again
I... I will begin again.

Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh.
Oh, maybe the time is right.
Oh, maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day



you know... lol.... in a totally platonic kinda be-with-you way


hugs
