Array ( [sid] => 114916 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Love? [time] => 2006-02-16 16:15:34 [hometext] => some say love can heal, what happens when you can't feel? [bodytext] => Love?

Some say
Love can heal.
But what happens
When you're unable to feel?
Unable to see
What's better for you?
Unable to be
Blind or brand new?

So I'm simply
Numb
So I'm simply
Done

Without feeling
Or Heart
Without love or healing
I let myself fall apart

I'll persue my dream
Perhaps I'm supposed to die
Maybe It's supposed to be like this
And maybe this is my sign
To spread my broken wings
And fly
To heal these broken things
Or...slowly die

Decisions I make
The lives I spare
And the ones I take
The other times I don't dare
To interfere
Try to balance out
Try to hold nothing dear
Begging to cry aloud
Wanting anything to be clear
Finding nothing
Finding an empty abyss
Wishing for something
Thats long gone amiss
Wishing to heal
Wishing to feel

Love?

great job.
