((this poem may not make sense to many readers because it is in response to
one that someone had written to me-- if i get the permission to post his
poem on this site, i will, so that this poem makes much more sense. Hope you
enjoy it anyway!))

I may be holding the bow, but i will shoot no arrow
Never could i deliever such a blow
You have much to live for, more than you possibly know
For my love will be your guide when you've forgotten where to go
Not once will i let u die, for what wonders life could bring
My voice will carry over wretched screams, just to join you as u sing
In this life you live, things will be all right
My mind is already made up in this inevitable fight

Yes i could kill you this instant if i feel
But i wouldnt, for it is us that is real
Perhaps you are wrong, but would it mean the end
Even if God was such a close friend?
I may have been crying, but theres no need to apologize
They're not tears of pain, but of devotion i saw in your eyes

Never stop writing of things that you know
For i am there guiding the pen, helping as you go
Please dont be weary any longer, i am here for you
I will be with you from now on, you will see it soon
I may have beauty, but more lies inside
I dont think i could convince you, even if i tried
You i will not sacrfice, but to you i do call
Though you may be deaf, i know you hear it all
But as i sink into this world of night
I pray that i will find you there, and away goes my fright

The world has nothing, nothing to give
For you are all that i need to live
In this world of saddening death, you and me find home
So how could you find confort when you are all alone?
No it is no cathedral, nor is it a place to pray
For all you need to do is ask me, and i shall hear what you say
You may be a slave to the one you love
But i am no master in the game of push and shove
Yes i could kill you this instant if i feel
But i wouldnt, for it is us that is real
Perhaps you are wrong, but would it mean the end
Even if God was such a close friend?

I cannot leave you, for i have not loved like this before
And never in my life have i wanted anything more
Than to be here to heal any cuts that sting
And to show you that to me you are everything
So go forward and into that blinding light that you see
Because waiting at the end of the tunnel - - is me.
