[falling] .my voice has faltered

By Six-Out

I don't exist.

lick your lips- just a bit. dear
and kiss tonight goodbye. au revoir

with my hair in my eyes- I dreamt of dreamless nothings.
cast a stone to the sky.
and prayed that the stars would shatter before me.
fall. and set this life ablaze.

and I am empty.

I kissed my fingertips- waiting for forever. in a moment
that was destined to be never. forever more
and took a bow. from my starlight.d serenade

beautiful. isn't the right word.
but it's the first to come to mind- with my thoughts. sporadic
tasting the horizon. and just a bit more
as I plucked pluto from the night.
tonight the sky is mine.

[kiss me]
and taste this void.

for I am nothing- and tonight is my voice.

A former member wrote: "cast a stone to the sky. and prayed that the stars would shatter before me." That line and the last really make this piece phenomenal. For me anyways. Even juggernauts have moments of weakness. +tpu+

A former member wrote: "and prayed that the stars would shatter before me. fall. and set this life ablaze." I took those lines in the context of jump start "the happenins" and can big time relate. Course if my context is off shoot me. Either way this was great man. ~Ryan
