A work in progress...

By Cutting_for_Freedom

Confusion, wondering which way to turn
Spin the dial, play another round
Everything is at stake, yet you lose nothing
The price of the game -- your soul
Yet, it's too cliche
Let's make it your heart instead
Don't worry, we shall leave the love behind
After all, we don't accept damaged goods


I'm not finished yet, I'm just at a block.. Part of me wants to leave it just the way it is, yet I feel I should write more... Let me know what you think.

    Oh hun, I think this just ripped the breath right out of me! The last line just instantly crushed my heart, I think it's perfect exactly how it is now.

  • A former member wrote: "After all, we don't accept damaged goods" Wow...that line is the line that pulls everything together. It's wonderful the way it is, but if you change it, I believe it'll become magnificent. However, do what you feel is right. *Evangel*
