Figured I'd post this again, it makes a lot of sense now.

[zero9zero]

To forgive and forget
I live and regret
Greif speaks it's own
Language. It forces me
To act strong, but every
Time I stand up, I'm
Afraid I'll bump my head
Eyesight in time.
Things seemed easy, only
I was building a fence
And you see me in what
I once took action against
Sever my eyes away from
This screen you call reality
I cannot find something tangible
The more I learn about myself
The more I see in me to hate
Your misconception of
Perception detains all
Reasoning. You're this
Image of my fears
Armed with words that
Shatter my ears. I am
Only I, but that won't do
Not for you, you're only you
Can you see what I've got?
Nothing.

Dave, sometimes admiting having nothing to give and being loved inspite of that, means you have the world to give someone who will see you beyond how you see yourself.
Pain through Pleasure, Pleasure through Pain.
To me, life first became tolerable when I accepted that.
Thank you for touching me through your words. They are sooooo true. Through your words I find hope that people remain true to what they see, not clouding rationalization in bullshit...but finding reality inspite of a world full of lies and deciet and pain.
Love,
