[hometext] => Such is/can be life.
[bodytext] => These knees swell with inflammation In carrying a heavy heart I drown in the blood it bleeds As it leaks out my skin in crimson beads I stare at grey and navy covers And long for cyan ceilings My room has for a while darkened, Until the light bulb will soon harken I crawl for the time being Feeling my way through the unknown My joints getting sore Joining my knees in an empathetic score Burdened lungs and pipes wheeze Escaping air along with dreams The replacements now are less fantastic, And perhaps it's something drastic Stand, gather 'round! Watch the show of defeat! See the crushing of the soul! Watch as another man is swallowed whole! Slumber now eludes me, As I trudge on in repetition A slave to a daily grind, Who has no more hope to unwind [comments] => 3 [counter] => 127 [topic] => 21 [informant] => xHeathenx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
