Poetry: Part 2

You sit atop, and stare outside
Because although this life is dull
In safety you'd much rather reside

Guilt, Pain, Doubt, and Fear
all of them live, it's true
but as do Happiness, Comfort and Love
the choice is up to you

The walls are cold, the stone lays dead,
Everything seems oddly surreal
And although the sun shines in the sky
Its warmth you cannot feel

You know where the door is
It's right over there, y'see?
Step outside the walls, my friend
Suck it up, come with me

From here on out, anything goes
and when it's over,
many battles will be fought.
But you took that step outside, my friend
and in the end you'll look back:
It was definately worth the shot.

Nice, Stu...very nice. I like it.


Here is my latest creation: (written at 1:10 AM the other morning. lol.)

-----------------------------------
Threads of time intertwine,
Slipping, sliding,
Finally unwraveling.
I want you to be mine,
You're just out of reach,
And I cant seem to find,
The words that I seek.
The threads have split now,
Lost in a million yarns.
They're too large for the needles head,
For my heart.
I lost it before I could find it,
Your hiding them from me,
In your river of shadows,
and your wall of tears.
You've stolen my thimble,
torn my quilt,
Broken my fingers,
And they bleed...
Pin prick blood stains on your soul.

What do you think, Stu?
