Oh did you hear the lie / that ate through this heart of mine?  / It unhinged its terrible jaw / to devour and swallow me whole / well truth is a servant / an electrical current / that gives life but takes just as quickly / and love is a slave you take up like a snake / cause it's just as deceitful and deadly / but oh / if i could gain back control / i played the harp of the fool / and cried the tears of king david / with the high places torn down / and all that was sacred / to me you were lost and i could just barely reach you / but the harder i fought / the more that victory seemed further away / oh did you hear the cry / of the phantom that laid down to die / i thrusted my fist through its side / to retreive what was rightfully mine / well truth is a plague that can wipe out a race / of people who make their own hell / and love is the agent that shields the contagious / from losing and harming themselves / but oh / if i could gain back control

Hello my lovelies. Long time no see! I miss everyone. Is it time for school yet? Oh wait, I graduated. *pout*

I hope you all are having a wonderful summer so far. Mine seems to be coalescing into spending exorbitant amounts of money on fabric and shiny things and yummy candles and incense and supplies for craft projects that I may or may not ever actually attempt. That and reading a whole lotta comic books. ^_^

Currently I'm trying to psych myself up for the uber-drama of this weekend when I have a big dance performance on Friday night. Hopefully I can get both of my new costumes finished by tomorrow night so I can have a little time to practice in them.

Love and cyberhugs!

Let me fall

Let me climb

There's a moment when fear and dream must collide

Someone I am is waiting for courage

The one I want

The one I will become

Will catch me

So let me fall

If I must fall

I won't heed your warnings -- I won't hear them

All I ask --

All I need --

-- Let me open whichever door I might open 

Let me fall

If I fall

All the feelings may or may not die 

I will dance so freely

Holding on to no one

You can hold me only if you too will fall

Away from all

These useless fears

And chains 

Someone I am is waiting for my courage

The one I want -- the one I will become -- will catch me

So let me fall if I must fall

I won't heed your warnings, I won't hear

Let me fall

If I fall

There's no reason to miss this one chance --

This perfect moment --

Just --

Let me fall
