    Well, how hard is it to figure out really?

    Goodbye -

    Specter note, of a poem she wrote
    "Love is blind, but I love him unseen"
    These are the words she sent to me
    Tears out hollow, hard to swallow
    Was that all but a dream within a dream?

    A somber sigh had caught on a tough wind
    And blew into the clouds, behind the sun
    One last breath before setting a heart to mend
    So lonely this, o'er the longing's hold
    A phantom hope filled with want, emotion

    So obviously these lips are trembling
    Struggling to forget,
    I keep remembering

    So sick, so stricken, so saintly sailed and left behind
    Tomorrows twilight, tainted by air of rhyme
    (Oh carmen' drive away her voice, like aged wine)
    (My 'Cruzing' love is hers, but hers is not yet mine)
    And I saw her slip away
    On her hand a ring, just engaged.

    Does this darkness hide behind an oar?
    A ghost of memories in her brown eyes
    And will this wind be carried out to the shore?
    So that one voice will be buried beneath clear water
    To drown out all cries?

    No. This ghost, no matter how far beneath the sea
    Will find it's way back to me
    Enchanted by way of involuntary spell
    Her name I know, I remember well
    Christina

    Christina
    Ah, heat of woes and sorrow, hard like lumber
    Tied to a crisis, insomnia denies my slumber

    And in that love of which attracts me to shy rain
    Whispers "Christina", I can't seem to forget her name

    A drunken cry floats above its crept
    And the wind whispers of not-kept promises
    Will my love be my death, my debt?
    One last breath, a flailing strength
    By a route of which was ripped apart by adoration's length
    So will my hope, the decaying teeth, lead to a grave
    Underneath these foundations that I've made?
    And will my love become my death, the price, the debt

    If so
    know that, it, I will not regret.

    Jesse: This is very good. Obviously it means a lot to you...I'm sorry for what happened.

    But at least your writing is fantastic. :)

    Thanks Arlene :) But I dunno, seems sad that bad things have to happen for me to write anything worth while.
