just another one of my uniteresting posts....

Staring at the night sky:

Ghostly wonders
floating in the twilight skies,
revolving in my eyes
surrounding the shining moon.
A crystalized reflection of the sun,
and like this beautiful moon
I find my mind.
On one side light shines,
and I come to understand the moment,
but the other side stays dark,
and I find emptyness and confusion.
This moment seems not to pass,
exploring in myself this endless limbo
continued throughout the night.
Yet as the night comes to pass,
inside me this limbo ends.
Although I am perplexed
the reality has not affected me
and I walk forth to the new day.


I see the darkness coming all is bleak...

I really liked the simile of relating to the moon in this.  Thanks for sharing.

First of all, this is in no way uninteresting!  This was a GREAT read.  I really enjoyed this.  The analogy you used to portray your emotions was awesome.  While the sun's down, the dark side of the moon is being shown... This is excellent.  VERY nice work.

I liked this alot! The whole comparison of your mind and the moon was something completely different- and yet it still totally made sense. I've never heard or even thought to put it put that way. Great work here.

Awesome job!

Jorge I really liked this one. I loved the images you gave off in this one. Very well done here. I enjoyed this one a lot. I am proud to say you are my friend....well.....right now, but don't get used to it pal.

We need to go out soon, call me...(fernando's fairwell party-thurs)

One again, nicely done.

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

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
