Array ( [sid] => 26155 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Colorblind [time] => 2003-10-31 15:48:24 [hometext] => Please don't laugh at me...I hate it when people laugh at me... [bodytext] => Moonlight shines through my window pane,
While'st reflecting the tears that run down my face

I know that I am not alone...
Though I know not to whom my soul truly belongeth

Forever I have searched in vain!
Forever I have waited for love to awaken!

...But it never did...

And now I look up at the bright moonlit sky
And wonder why
My life is one big unanswered question,
Something that can be plotted out in black and white
--------Whenever it pleases

Am I possessed?
Have I gone mad?
I have lost my sanity, my identity, even my morality.

I have no sense of right and wrong,
Black and white
They all seem the same to me...
For I am colorblind

Without my love,
Happiness has been alienated from my heart.
I know not the difference,
Between a chuckle and a sob.
They all seem the same to me...
For I am deaf.

Though I cannot see what has become of me
And I cannot hear what is happening to me
I am not alone
I can feel a presence
A touch... a shadow... a hope...

Though I cannot see it or hear it,
I know it is there.
I know I have a reason to live.
I know hope exists

For there are some things,
That I can see
And I can hear
I must not stray from it
I must not let go...

For it is the only thing that I know I can trust

Nothing to laugh at here. This is so moving, so touching. I could feel my heart break as I read it . . .

Laugh hun?? I think not!!!
I had tears reading this.If you felt alone before,then you have come to the right place here.You are part of our family now and you will never be alone again.This is a totally heartwrenching piece and you expressed yourself wonderfully....You can smile now...because soon there will be a difference between your chuckles and your sobs.You have talent..be proud hun.
(((hugs)))

I don't see why anyone would have laughed. If I could easily cry right now I do agree I think I would have. I think it was beautiful. If anyone laughs don't worry I'll go kick their arse.
