I need you now
September 6, 2010
I need you,
Now.
World turned upside down.
Slowly losing grip.
Going to fall.
Fading away,
Faster, and faster
Peeling paint,
Evaporating water, left over from rain.
Slipping away.
Empty shell,
Empty smile, on my face.
Inside my head, slipping away,
Away.
Need you now, more than ever.
You have gone,
Not coming back.
Ever.
Abandoned.
Forever alone.
I am fading,
Away.
Almost gone
Away.

This was really good. The raw emotion that came across in this piece was just amazing. Everyone can realte to feeling that way, and this just descriped that feeling perfectly. 5 stars, no doubt, this was a spectacular piece. My favorite part was when you said, "Empty shell, Empty smile, on my face" those were some really smart lines :) Good job, keep it up :)
If you have the time, can you check out my piece, "Encounter"?
