[falling] .my voice has faltered

I don't exist.

lick your lips- just a bit. dear
and kiss tonight goodbye. au revoir

with my hair in my eyes- I dreamt of dreamless nothings.
cast a stone to the sky.
and prayed that the stars would shatter before me.
fall. and set this life ablaze.

and I am empty.

I kissed my fingertips- waiting for forever. in a moment
that was destined to be never. forever more
and took a bow. from my starlight.d serenade

beautiful. isn't the right word.
but it's the first to come to mind- with my thoughts. sporadic
tasting the horizon. and just a bit more
as I plucked pluto from the night.
tonight the sky is mine.

[kiss me]
and taste this void.

for I am nothing- and tonight is my voice.

You slaughter...with every fucking sentiment, you slaughter. I pray I am dreaming, but know I would just wake up in tears. Double-edged sword. I'll take your every blow like this.

i hate to leave an "i agree with..." comment, BUT i do, indeed, agree with twilight. you meld beauty and sadness into an alloy of utter perfection--a sparkling mouthful of aluminum foil with that bitter electric tinge. rock on.

"and prayed that the stars would shatter before me. fall. and set this life ablaze." I took those lines in the context of jump start "the happenins" and can big time relate. Course if my context is off shoot me. Either way this was great man. ~Ryan

My word. This was worth the wait.. Jesus, Jon. I want to quote it all.. "in a moment that was destined to be never." That hit me like a ton of bricks..
