I cannot feel your ling'ring touch. I cannot hear your gentle voice. Yet I know you're here. I feel your love within my heart. I hear your breathing as you sleep. Yet I am not here. Confusion weaves through mind and soul as I wait for you. Visions of that timeless face crowd my tired mind. Where are you? I long to stop your helpless tears. I burn to hold you in my arms...yet you are gone. Once again, gone, to your savior. The savior I'll never be. Gone to that pain I cannot heal and on to a death I cannot stop.....i love you..if you only knew....12:21 CST

Thoughts parade around my mind. Tears slip down my cheeks...and I just sit. I feel the warm wind blow through my hair, yet i am chilled. My hands tremble and my throat tightens. What have I become? Once...I was so happy. No questions crowded my mind, no fears overcame my joys, and no guilt filled my soul. Yet I wasn't happy then either. I was innocent; I was secure. I was a child.
Now...I am a child no longer, yet i have not grown to adult. I'm caught in between innocence and death. I long to return to my fingerpaints, to return to quiet days of fairytales and naptimes, but I cannot. That time has pasted. Now I spend my days, thinking, questioning, fighting..... I think of things yet to come, I think of days gone by...and I question things I cannot change. I yearn for a knowledge....yet I don't know where to find it. I long for the understanding few seem to have...and I fight. I fight everything. I devour those who hate me, I rip apart things unknown , I lash out at those who wish to love me....and i send away the ones i love. I feel an everlasting need to be alone, yet...yet my tears reveal the truth.
I long for companions. I long for people who understand my thoughts without having them explained. I merely long for acceptance, but I fight to be held apart. A war rages within me. So badly I want to be left alone. I want for all to forget me. I long to be let go. why, you ask? so i may sink so deeply within myself, that i too, can let go. So I can finally feel peace as others do.....so i can finally die. Yet I know, peace will not be found in death so i do not die.....i live on.....
I watch the clouds move through the sky. I listen as the water runs. I smile at the winds as it caresses me...and i just sit. I think, I question....but for now....i do not fight.......15:21 CST
