    hearts are everything
    you break them by shattering

    a needle repairs
    the thing that is torn in two
    it should stay that way
    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    it should stay that way
    but earth is now drifting
    on sea of doubt

    The last verse was 4 syllables so I edited:

    troubled sea of doubt
    guide my body surrendered
    drowning step by step

    Drowning step by step
    in the abyss of my soul
    pull me up again

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe

    pull me up again
    gravity my enemy
    always keeps me down

    (I hope I didn't kill this thread with that last depressing line... promise I'll cheer up)

    always keeps me down
    stable feet firmly planted
    Here I stand: Try me.

    Our minds are on vacation, that's all. BTW I might have killed the other one with my depressing line...

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    I am more willow than oak
    My shade is for you

    my shade is for you
    below the umbrella tree
    sultry green shadows

    Sultry green shadows
    light in might, under the dim cloud
    we respite forever

    we respite forever
    after we've lived a life
    to live for ever.
