So Cold

Why has everything lost its colour? Why has the sky turned pale? Why is there no sunlight anymore?

Just another day, I am told?

Why has the night become so cold?

I always wanted things to be this way

I always wanted to go away

Now that I have it, why do I feel this way?

Why has everything become so cold?

Why do I feel so alone..?

Pretty cool...

Sometimes when you get what you ask for, you indeed question why it is you wanted it. Makes you think, this write. Sincerely, Mark

I feel like giving you an inspirational sermon.

But I hate it when people do that to me! I normally call them nasty names! teehee. The emptiness is simply motivation to share and connect with people and the universe. Damn! I did it. Sorry. cheers, Jess

:)I wish it were that easy,

:) I wish it were that easy, sometimes. That I could just go out and do whatever it is that I've always wanted to. That I could forget about my earthly troubles for just one day. Sadly it seems that as long as I am part of the matter of this earth I shall have to bear it's consequences. You can only fight the current for so long before it flows you away where it wants to, you know...
