Temporarily
My headache has subsided
I have slept in rooms that have froze the
burning desires within
I have crept through the halls who's screams
I alone could hear
I have written tragic novels
none i could remember
I have stole the hearts of many
none who would say their name
I have sat aimlessly waiting for saints
who I shall lead to the plutonian shore
I have felt pain and her shoulder
is quite cold
I have killed time in hell
writing about you
I have slit my own wrist knowing
you will never read this
I have written my last poem
so enjoy what you could of had
I have loved what i could not attain
this rapture is brooding within me
I have waited too long for this headache....
