Array ( [sid] => 95646 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Without Passion [time] => 2005-05-24 20:40:52 [hometext] => [bodytext] => You are without passion
Steadily walking on stilts
Balancing act to keep up hope
The outcome of the scenario
Plays itself out on this tight-rope
Strangling the prospects of fame
The actor of fortune
The writer,
Who reinvented the game
Set this whole production
Right up in a ball of flame

There is nothing left to fear,
Nothing left to cry
There is a" voice "in your ear,
Telling you its your time to die
There is an ache in your stomach
As you kneel over
And close your eyes
There comes a time
When the question
Is answered with no reply

Continuing this journey
Witness your next success
Standing there on the corner
Was you staring,
Your sin,
Your lifelessness
Choices
Executed wisely
You could not resist
To tempt
Would be treason
For you are forever
In contempt

Always tempting fate but never really feeling the emotions of life? How sad. How boring to live without emotion. Great write.

Smiles,
Rita

I love the wordplay you used in this poem...A couple lines really stood out...One of my favs being; "There comes a time when the question is answered with no reply..."
