Array ( [sid] => 94038 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My heart is my cage [time] => 2005-05-11 13:43:32 [hometext] => another pill.. another cold night... [bodytext] => my mind is the weather
stormy and cold
stay warm in your arms
cause i cannot hold...
i can't stand this despair
it's the hand i can't touch
i reach into black
while not hearing much

she's so far away
i catch echo fade
there's nothing i do
but rot here in wait..
i'm made of the rain
i melt off the cube
no strength to be whole
she makes me so blue

i wanna be free
from the chains of my loss
my head is so heavy
so is this cross...
i'm tortured by words
her soft spoken voice
my heart is a cage
i have not a choice

i take a small pill
to forget what is real
my time to be blind
is the time that i steal...

bury me in an hourglass please... [comments] => 2 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 66 [informant] => In_a_While [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

No one commented so I thought I’d take a look and it was as good as the rest. Well not as good as some of your more resent stuff but it was good. You have a great style and I know I always say that but its true. Hope things are going well haven’t heard from you in a few days. I really liked the 3rd stanza but the whole thing was a strong write. Take care my friend and I look forward to more rights as I know more are coming….Steve
