Re: Morning

Re: Broken Light
that streaks my conscience. We used to sit here and long at the stars: consider their pretensions, marvel at their aloofness. We knew their destiny lay in ours. Our what? ...

Re: Awakening
Hello! Let's jump right in. As the moon melts away the last drop of day’s heat, summer slumber no longer beckons. This is great imagery, and a nice start. The ...

Re: Never Again-edited (agian)

Re: Who is that Man on the Cross?

Re: Hide and Seek (Can You Find Me?)
This: "The little girl that once was me" should probably be "The little girl who once was me". The repetition of "I'm fading faster/Into this disaster" gets a little too ...

Re: Wifey
A couple of nit-picky things - Miles doesn't rhyme with times, and sucking gum sounds weird when it's usually chewed. Oh and it should be around, not round, or 'round ...

Re: God (R&R)
“She’s lonely.” And she was – she had no friends. This line is a bit long, and breaks the flow a little since the preceding line was quite short, so ...
