Description i can mend your heart baby
and right now i'm expecting to be
the furthest thing from your mind
as if it would ever change since then
i'm biting my nails thinking about you
wondering what i'll say when and if
we meet again standing at that door
surprised smile upon your face
you just witnessed a miracle
it had been over a year since
you and i had been nothing more
than strangers passing life by
not quite enjoying life but
not quite experiencing anything
except the moment we live in
i miss the way you look at me
it's changed since we met,
i used to be far back in the distance
never reaching out, keeping my ground
you were chasing after me
now you look at me like i'm
a lost child clinging to a tattered doll
a child standing alone in a subway
strangers passing her by
only taking time to notice
how her red dress seems to match
the colors on the wall

Wow. I wrote that spur of the moment... I thought that the picture wasn't enough, it just needed something more and well, now you have it. I always wanted more Picture was taken during the mis-hap in Chicago that you can read about in my journal.

the last two lines of your poem. yes.

'i miss the way you look at me'

its hard for me to write such simple lines and still give them that power.

I like pictures with odd signs, edited or not, i couldn't tell if i wanted to. i like it.

I was trying to focus more on the poem anyway...
Well aren't you just my new best friend.
You'll find a lot of my poetry in my descriptions.
I used to be frequent in the art-poetry section too...

The last two lines... I don't know where I get stuff like that... I love it though

Kinda blurry?

But it makes it cool. I mean, you wouldn't expect nor really want to see the Red Line too clearly.
