    "The Tulips Bloom In The Dimmest Light"

    Yesterday my hope finally failed me
    As the mid-summer rain poured down
    And drowned all the sanity in me
    While choking every breath I tried to take
    I tried tearing away from the red
    But then I was taken in again
    As daylight broke on my torn heart
    Soon my skin began to crawl
    When I heard your name ring out
    The hair on my neck stood on end
    When August passes this time around
    I'll be doing more than just existing

    Bitterness is all I can offer to you
    Sorrow is all I can offer myself
    Sympathy is all anyone else can offer you
    Sadness is all anyone else can offer me
    The stars are bleeding in the sky tonight
    While the man in the moon cries out
    Clouds fall from the atmosphere
    While mountains slowly start to crumble
    The tides rise faster with the tears of the moon
    Earth and land quake beneath my feet
    I scribble my last bit of poetry in the sand
    It reminds me of all that I had

    Your face resonates even in the dimmest of light
    And your smile illiminates even the blackest of nights
    I'll start bleeding being without you soon
    Then and only then will the tulips start to bloom

    When the waves crash down on my heart
    When the sky comes falling down
    I'll wonder why I bled for you
    When you never bled for me
    June never felt this hot before
    July only looks to be hotter
    The sweat rolls gracefully off my chin
    While my blood boils in my vains
    My skin peels off my face
    My ears ring out with the sounds of the silent
    When August passes this time around
    I'll be doing more than just existing

    Your face resonates even in the dimmest of light
    And your smile illiminates even the blackest of nights
    I'll start bleeding being without you soon
    Then and only then will the tulips start to bloom

    Your face resonates even in the dimmest of light
    And your smile illiminates even the blackest of nights
    I'll start bleeding being without you soon
    Then and only then will the tulips start to bloom

    Beyond the embrace
    I can't see your face
    This God awful place
    Speeds up the pace
    Then my heart stops
    All of my thoughts
    My stomach in knots
    The life in me rots

    Wow. You've really got some talent in writing, Will.

    Bitterness is all I can offer to you
    Sorrow is all I can offer myself
    Sympathy is all anyone else can offer you
    Sadness is all anyone else can offer me
    The stars are bleeding in the sky tonight
    While the man in the moon cries out
    Clouds fall from the atmosphere
    While mountains slowly start to crumble
    The tides rise faster with the tears of the moon
    Earth and land quake beneath my feet
    I scribble my last bit of poetry in the sand
    It reminds me of all that I had

    Me likes. :D

    Will, I think he meant if you wrote a SONG, like with guitars, drums, bass or something...


    Did you? :p

    BTW, GREAT WORK! :whistle: :eek:
