It’s so easily broken by a simple weapon; love.My heart is like a prism and you cast your light right onthrough. It shined back a rainbow arching a bridge for you. You found your potof gold, opposite side. I .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1205439/ Spin,spin, Spiral, Spiral. You in the air; I smell you.

Dragme like an old mare to the water and leave me to live on edge. What happens when the intrigue of my mystery is to confusing and my endearingquirks grow annoying? Poseidon lays wet between us. There’s metal clamoring o.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1189067/ Angstand frantic won’t you calm me with the fact that none of it will come true?  We don’t have to fear the pain of having andlosing love.

You can take all the flowers in.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1189064/ You said the red stop light illuminated my beauty in thenight.

With a Siren's song, I've layed .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171715/ She was a dim light in a coffee shop singing of loveunrequited.

He roared through her soft and mellow,shaking her like a hurricane. .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171714/ Momma was so happy I found someone who illuminated me like astar. A fire to match my burning flame, let it commence.Burning it all like a wild fire; we left our trail in the blaze.Why do we torture ourselves with our passions? You burned out just to leave meto fade away. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171709/ I netted myself in the idea, caught like a fish. I flopped about gasping for air.

I wish I was her size,an easily saved damsel, a waif to your masculinity.I wish I had her face, one structured by the angels, angular and photogenic.

And she captures you in daylight,.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171701/ It sits like a trophy on a shelf in your basement. Do you look on in admiration or in wonder? Was it ever meant to be won? Or are you realing from the loss? No one expected us to play a game even our fathers couldn't win. And I sent it to you in a letter with all the things we never say, so you cou.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171692/ I'm uncertain, I'm unsure and so confused. What if I was not real? How to deal? How to deal?I've never walked within anyone's lines and scribbled out all the kind words to remain undefined. Ran so far now, I'm unreachable. How to deal? How to deal? I'm not together but I'm unbroken. I've never foll.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171690/ Blood is spilt for your trust. We determine what we must.I'm losing my breath running in circles between excitied and nervous. Like a gentleman, you give me breath pressing your lips to mine.

I can't face you. Head in water because it's easier to breathe under than exchange air with you. A cheshire smile is more clever than an aching heart. Smell my fingertips and remember all last nights festivities. Stumb.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171686/ I know her. To say I love her wouldn't be a complete truth. People show us thier strongest traits and compels us to them. It tells us we can't live with those aspects of another's character, so we must love them.

You promised me flight but all I felt was the fall. Your wings shadowed over me. We said we'd sail around the world for a year but the boat is still in the harbor. I believed your lies because they're prettier than the truth. Everyone says y.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171681/ Rape me. Steal all I am, no one will miss me. Abuse me. The pain on the outside; the inside just the same. You could have it all. I'd carry all the crosses you bare, drag them to the top and hang at the crusifiction. If you'd only turn around. If you'd look my way but you don't even consider.. The.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171677/    I trip over my feet trying to be the best me I can for you. I simply don't walk the same path as you do. You wish I'd give up the comics and take up real reading. Well, I read the same books as you and found them interesting. I place myself inside them and find I'm just not fitting. Tel.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/JoJoHallows/1171674/
