It's been awhile guys and gals.Hope at least someone remembers me...


Her Secret-

She sits alone, unheard
red lightning in her eyes
damp streaks of his love
roll gently down her check.

(I know it's not right)

faint luminescence from the sky above
illuminates the void within
ragged and torn her soul revealed
to all but he.

(But he still loves me)

her world is all blue and black
the delicate features of her face
marred by his unyielding love of her
her eyes closed in pain, to the world without.

(Is this what love is?)

Opening her eyes she sees in the night
the light of the stars;
the light of forgotten dreams
so close but forever out of reach.

(I've given everything for him)

His breathing quickens, the thunder of footfalls
pound relentlessly in her ears
the jewels of her soul stare to the heavens
rimmed in the waters of silence.

(I'll endure for my love)

head bowed in defeat
as he crashes into the room
he takes his love out on her again
her hand reaching, grasping for those stars.

By the by, I'll be starting on my book soon, I figure I'll try writing the first chapter over Thanksgiving break.I don't have much yet but a simple outline and the title. It's called "Dignitas".
Bonus points
1 point = meaning of the word?
5 points= what language?
15 points = who was this word important to and why?

Catch u all soon.

ex animo,
Aaron Woodside

That is wonderful, truly wonderful. i am sorry to say that I cannot answer your questions though. I love the poem, it is surreal and touching, the magic is that you feel the lostness and depravation of the girl. wonderful work! Good luck on your book!! ^.^

Yes there will be tommorrow, but will you be there to greet it?

I truly loved this poem.  I like the fact that in this poem the girl's despair is so real that when you are reading the poem, you want to cry yourself.  Great write!  Good luck with your book!
