Bitter ending

I heard it

There

A break in your sentence

A brief pause between words

 

Nothing was spoken

Nothing was heard

And in that utter emptiness

I heard everything

Everything I need to know

Everything you wouldn’t want me to

 

I heard it

A break

A pause before the end

A pause. The calm before the storm. IS there hope for frodo? There never was much hope. Only a fools hope. Thats right I know my poems. I am so deep and in tuned with it.

Ok, so hi! you commented after me on morgan's status and i was bored and was facebook stalking you and saw you had a blog so i stumbled over here and started reading and all that to say that I read this and I think it might be one of my favorite things ever. Perhaps it just hit me at the right time or something, but you have a way with words, sir.

Anyway, perhaps you just needed some encouragement. I hope that helped! Keep it up, man.

Haha, stalking is what facebook is meant for. And thank you very much, it seems encouragement has a way of coming at the right time I guess
