[bodytext] => As the tears trickle down my paralyzed face
There's no reason to smile
When sadness reigns supreme
And your love is in someone else's arms
My arms remain empty
Only filled with scars and memories
Hope hangs from singed threads
I fade away all alone
I wonder why all alone
I ask questions all alone
I am alone, all alone
Afraid of hurting and letting you inside
I am so weak, I realize
Wishing for oblivion
And to hold you in my arms forever
Wishes fall like rain
A depressing shower (I shelter amidst loneliness)
As they run into the gutter
I fade away all alone
I wonder why all alone
I ask questions all alone
I am alone, all alone
Time can heal torment,
But my heart never seems to heal
I hate my ***** selfishness
And I hate myself for these feelings
Fading away as these memories don't
A forgotten nightmare
A tragic mistake, a blip
Fading away unconsciously, but fading away
I fade away all alone
I wonder why all alone
I ask questions all alone
I am alone, all alone

I love those lines, Joel. They just speak to me.
Also, nice use of the word, "blip" it struck me as odd that the word was used and even more odd when it fit. It really conveys the idea/message accurately. Bravo.
Lots of love and peace be with you,
Chelsea

This was so sad Joel, I see what you mean when you said reading
these poems would explain what's up better than you trying to just
say it. I hope this stuff all works out for you and your confusion eases.
I'll be praying for you.
