Woohoo, first post in #5...and it's unfinished:


A scarlet rose is dimmed to rust
And tears turn cold in time
Dreams have gone, they've turned to dust
A faint world undefined.

Stagnant trees, no wind does blow
Among the darkened sky
Angels fall from paradise
Without wings they cannot fly.


-Leah

Va pensiero sull' ali dorate...

I dunno... the flow is really good but I'm obliged to say that the last line didn't flow particularily well.  But hey, if it's unfinished there is room to polish it up.  
Oh and please send me your photo!  Please??

This poem looks like it's going to be an amazing poem. I really loved how it was written. Very lonely and eerie feeling I get from reading this. I think this poem will go somewhere nice.
Very nicely written Leah!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I have a feeling I read the ending first and then the beginning..lol.
Anyway, it reads beautifully. I'll go and look for the middle bit now.
