(To respond to an idea that Jesse had recently, I'm posting a piece of writing inspired by a song I heard recently. I will try my best not to censor or edit what comes out of my head, for the sake of the idea.)
This is inspired by the song "In Private" by the Pet Shop Boys (featuring Elton John)
What Are You Going To Do?
You could live in private
thoughts for the rest of your
life but is that living, is that
sane? Letting your mind,
your words that you let dangle
on your tongue like swords you
never speak,
constantly cutting,
until you cannot speak.
You could.
What are you going to do?
The crowds call
for your answer, but
what are you going to say?
Tell them you saw
my hand in yours and
we walked through the purple
lights of the city and there
was nothing you
would not say, sonnets
flew freely from your mouth,
tiny fireworks and
you smiled.
What are you going to do?
And I see all
the little sentence fragments
teetering on your tongue,
and they see only
the movements of your mouth.
What are you going to do?
------------------
There you go. I'm not sure if this counts as a poem or a song. But here it is!
Love,
Kalinka.

Hey kalinka! I'm glad my idea was so appealing to you. You did a really good job. Most people when I told them about that idea just said"So your going to re-write the song?" and I said"No I'm going to think of something eles to write about completly differnt." Ah well. you got the meaning.
Full of ideas,
Jesse
its great!!
T.T*crys* it the best...
*crys*,

Cher Kalinka,
From what I read from your poem/song, I might be wrong, it's about someone keeping his/her message inside in public even though he/she is very well spoken around those he/she is comfortable with. But I was wrong about your other poems, I kinda stummbled upon the meaning of one, so my confidence in this field is a little lacking.
Anyway, loved the poem/song. Whichever it's supposed to be. It would work as either.
Salut,
Marr Vell
P.S. Breadirn, you must be very weepy if this made you cry, it's not even meant to be sad.
its a poeng!
Haha, thanks Kylaia for clearing that up.
Kalinka.
