Did you ever celebrate your failure !!?

When I write, freely with pen and paper,
My 1000 round empty ammo can fills with wads of paper, discarded words of failure, filling it to overflow.
Even leading a trail to my wicker chair on rollers at my writer desk.

Then, sometime during the night,
I rip the page from my notebook, reading the words that I write,
Overcome by emotions,
Knowing that I finally got it right.


[i]I've watched you walk

between the sunshine and the rain.

I've watched you walk

on a tightrope, between pleasure and pain.

I've watched you walk

on the edge of sanity and madness.

Iv'e watched you walk

on the borderline of joy and sadness.

Girl, you're the epitome

of a double-edged sword...

Dancin' with the Devil,

and prayin' with the Lord.

I've watched you walk

into my life, and right out of it, again and again.

Yet; I can't figure you out,

nor; do I know where we are going, or where we will end.

You seem to think

that it's all a game-

To the victor, the spoils-

To the loser, it's shame.

I've watched you walk

between the realm of life and death.

Between every single heartbeat-

Between every precious breath.

I've watched you walk on water,

I've seen you spread your wings and fly.

I've brought you up when you were down-

You've brought me down, when you were high.

Girl, you're drivin' me crazy,

and I don't know what I'm gonna' do.

I guess I'll just keep on keepin' on-

Watchin' you walk, 'cause I'm hopelessly in love with you.[/i]
