&ldquo;When it&#039;s over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don&#039;t want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don&#039;t want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to end up simply having visited this world.&rdquo;

Your Tears,

Are visceral blades of teal,

That cuts deep my chest,

Are frigid knives that vehemently stab,

Into the heart of my inky soul,

?

Your Tears

Are glacial tiffany liquids,

That wells in my eyes

- A dam of sorrow,

Before it dies,

In between the gauged creases on my chapped lips.

Sounds like a compliment, so I would have to thank you for that. But seriously though, your English is far better than mine. It's probably that you are too self absorb and assume mine as great. And , lol your comments made my day..
