Corners

Full of cobwebs
Empty of your things
My voice echoes when I call down the hall
My footsteps echo in my head
And the other corner
That room at the end of the hall
With the door closed
I open it
Full of boxes
And cobwebs in the corners
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

    no no trix. im not cartwheeling over your downness. being down does indeed suck. tis just when we write with raw feeling, that when its the best... the writing, not the feeling. well.. i find that anyway. :)

    No, no, I knew what you meant.
    I meant it sucks butt that our 'best' work is always done when we are down. That sucks. I wish I could harness the extreme happiness I feel. But I guess there is nothing cathartic in saying how good you feel. At least for me.
