A Shrouded Heart...

A Poem

From a distance I see you,
So beautiful and precious,
And believe me, it's true,
These traits you possess are precocious.

Silly and strange you appear,
Funny and wise,
I still hold you dear,
You can't even tell lies.

If only you'd give me a chance,
To pierce the shroud that entwines your heart,
You could stop the ridiculous dance,
But you won't let it part.

Others have tried and failed,
You cast them away like a stone,
And secretly, I regaled,
But you never knew, for I was alone.

You may think I'm different,
Weird and strange or so it seems,
That's what I convey, its not maginificent,
Deep down I have feelings, emotions, and dreams.

I know you are putting up a shroud,
I can see it in your eyes, even if you can't see into mine,
Let me dispel this stupid cloud,
And let your true self start to shine.

Whew....exhausting work, writing these....

Might I also add a song that could be worth your while, similar to the topic at hand. It's called "Konstantine" by Something Corporate. It's about 9 or so minutes long but it's really good.

(I just gave myself 10 points!)

If by "KQ" you guys mean "me", then I guess you're right. I love you too Shaun. Let's run away together and make babies.

Oh, and Andy stole that song from me. It was mine first, I tell you. All mine. My precious.

Alan.... you're cracked out. But, in hindsight, I'm pretty sure Jeffers has said something to that effect before.

It's too bad that JU doesn't have a puking smiley.

That is all.

I went trick-or-treating at her house... she seems to enjoy it for the majority of the time.

I saw MO at the Punkin Fair a couple weeks ago, didn't talk a lot to her though. Exchanged pleasantries, fake anger at her for moving, received fake anger for quitting band, and then umm... well she walked away. I seem to have that affect on people. Like trying to push two north poles together.
