Array ( [sid] => 149069 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Natural Disaster [time] => 2009-04-12 00:20:04 [hometext] => Eh my brains spittin out really random ideas. I blame lack of sleep. [bodytext] => You rush through this world, a hurricane,
Too fierce, too strong to be real.
Didn't anyone tell you
That people just aren't like that?

As I watch you watch the raindrops
that are sticking on the glass,
I find myself wondering,
just what you could be thinking.

Did you hear the thunder now?
Or was it transformed to music?
You say thunder sounds like God,
Whispering to the clouds.

Your eyes see much too far,
Looking at things no one else sees.
Do you even notice where your standing?
Or whose following at your heels?

I dont know how to phrase this,
the way you think or the way i feel.
Is this what love is,
Or maybe just pure admiration?

It scares me when you sit,
just waiting and watching.
Does this place not have anything
that could hold your interest?

Its a matter of time,
the days till you leave.
When you do rush from here though,
as a storm like you must,
think of me if only for a moment
and remember
please,
my dear,
be safe.

WOW, i am actually very very touched by this peice, for some reason you really made me feel emotions here, maybe it was the sheer honesty of the words you expressed, the almost playful nature of your observations, the ephemeral feeling from this piece, how you question the person with such honesty and a sharply observant eye, it almost reminds me of a certain anime, are you actually Japanese or is that just your user name, any way a touching and effecting write, though i didn't expect it, i was pleasantly surprised!!!

keep it up!!

Well, then lets applaud lack of sleep, I say. This poem just took me by the eyes and said "read me"!!! and I could not stop. Quite captivating.

Very enjoyable indeed.

Simply a beautiful write! I love the way you describe things, bringing the subject to life. What an amazing person you have written about...I would love to meet them. It is wonderful how you evoked such feeling from me, the reader, by just your words on paper.

A truly fantastic write!
Thank you for sharing!
