RisinSun28: pearls of default, your eyes relented mixed
RisinSun28: emotion for indentured seducing, exclusive
RisinSun28: sucking of soul sought flickers
RisinSun28: passing before time had a chance
RisinSun28: to relate them to lightning, sparks
RisinSun28: reignited intruding this darkness
RisinSun28: grown in the space between you , your mom
RisinSun28: and my ingenious self assesment, basement
RisinSun28: of lesions, pits of corrosion, fleeing
RisinSun28: this vision i leapt away roaming
RisinSun28: no meaning to owing the wandering notion
RisinSun28: a passing glance, caressing the chance
RisinSun28: for to stay, expressively shifting the
RisinSun28: gratitude lifting the gray
RisinSun28: if only you knew those who felt oft older

RisinSun28: only the ceiling would gently hold maybe
RisinSun28: without a writing within in me i read on the support beam
RisinSun28: "if you can't understand my silence,
RisinSun28: you will never understand mywords"

"Trouble Ahead"
topic by DreamsbyDay
Slipknot41: I never liked the Grateful Dead
Slipknot41: and failed to see the need for Rolling Stones worship
Slipknot41: but when it came to being a walking florence flask..
Slipknot41: Sure; pour those unknown substances straight in !
Slipknot41: thumb over the top, shake it up a bit
Slipknot41: yeah ! eyes can glow anew !
Slipknot41: it would be funny if that ended it
Slipknot41: in my case, the heartburn spread itself thru the neverous system
Slipknot41: lodged while secondary, third and fourth-dary reactions took

Slipknot41: supercedes all
