run…
…fast…
hide behind
proud emptied past

don’t…
…ask…
life stands alone
death wears a mask

go…
…down…
search darkened mind
a void is found

can’t…
…see…
light is unknown
please…help me be

won’t…
…last…
sad hollowed rind
then i’ll have passed

I hadn't read this one yet, Erin, but it really is powerful! The sense of urgency in it is unquestionable. See ya later!

I'm doing my best here, dearest Erin.. I'm never sure when your depths reflect your today.. BUT.. you are unequaled in unmasking those places in each of us that we sometimes pretend aren't there.. I kept thinking of "this too shall pass"... don't know why. You don't flinch.. that's where your magic comes from. love, katy xox.

Excellent expression, Erin. It reads, I'm sure as it was felt. It has the sound and rhythm of desperation.
