I long to live. by Emily TongI don't want to be
any longer stuck
on justthisside of fine,so be it,fine.
there's no Where to
draw the line of
who's to blame besides my
self.
no longer.
the sense-shaking madness
will one day
dissapate, my happy eyes
and lips
and heart suddenly proclaiming,
without fear,
we're alive. 02/27/2008 Author's Note: quote(Denton Welch): when you long with all your heart for someone to love you,
a madness grows there that shakes all sense from the trees and the water and the earth. and nothing lives for you,
except the long deep bitter want. and this is what everyone feels from birth
to death.
i realize my response is a contradiction... then i thought, do i care? nope.
