Array ( [sid] => 60759 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Hypertrophy [time] => 2004-08-19 23:56:02 [hometext] => I haven't written in so long... nothing's really come to me lately until now so let me know how it is... please [bodytext] => A cold winter splinters
My fingertips
And I should have stolen
That kiss – before you watched it
Become weightless
And drift off into the sky
I followed it through the mirrors
Of your eyes
But when that smile fades
I become empty inside
And wonder why you never asked me
how I could leave
my heart so far
from where I stand
I should have told you
Of all the times I left it
Within cold hands
So afraid of being alone
That I’m scared to death
And who could love me
Being this ugly inside
Who would want me
With tear swollen eyes
I’ve seen triggers with
my name engraved
And a rope with just the right amount
of length
But I think I’ll take my chances
And wait it out for you
I feel a heart-beat coming through
