Array ( [sid] => 111769 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Pulled by strings.... [time] => 2005-12-19 16:03:49 [hometext] => ...to see you smile. [bodytext] => I promised once to see it through
but all my heartaches in me grew
I need the line to draw me close
to death i dare with one more dose

I hate my candy coated hand
it leads me where i can't command
I'm pulled by strings below my sight
to where i'm left with no warm light

Help me end my straw's descent
no one knows how far it went...
I spilled myself into this well
so you can see what i can't tell
All the echoes seem to be
people who were once with me...

and now???

I pray for skies
of clear decision
No more clouds
to darken vision
Just a sun
to see you smile...

to begin in digesting such a substantial write. I would pray as well but fear that I am not worthy to bow my head in reverance to anything but hurt. It seems as though you have enough indecision for an entire universe to drown itself in. You do realize your power in this matter, clouds to darken your vision and are you not the god of your own horizon, you maintain your own skies and do not forget. What excuses we shall so easily embrace if it means to be pardoned from our own allowance of echoed relationships and a straw descent.

all the power of the sun and the impaired vision of indecision is behind this write in full support-through pain we ignite passion and you have succesfully dw.
