My heart is pounding,
Breathing getting heavier,

Anybody hear my cry
Lonely have I been for so long
One friend would have been nice
Never have I felt so betrayed

Then raise a leg and pee
In a queue, their barks sound like wails

Where barbells clank with muscled might
The biggest display of competitive pace
Is muscling for the closest parking space

Premium Member Love and Hate

They say love and hate

    Closest thing to each other

Between Us

Don't tease me
a common word exchanged
between friends who are lovers
excitedly rearranged

Just stick around
so easily spoken
among the closest of people
but tragically broken

Closest to the crystal fountains
My heart is theirs
Nearby in our forest so green
Carved wetly into every oak

Closest Thinh In My Mind

Closest Thing In My Mind

What in my mind can be closest thing;
Piano playing and choir which will sing;
Facial expression,
Great impression;
God in His presence always did bring.

Premium Member Bath Tub

I guess I like laying in the bath tub,
Because it's the closest thing to a coffin in a sub.
Cold and hard like my life, but comfortable as I thrive,
Only difference is I have the option to be alive.
