Take Back The Night Take back the night Remove the touch of Blackness that shadows me The music that once But no more made my Soul sing with what I believed was love Take back the night Take from my heart The poison that Drips through me Flowing into my Soul with each Throb of my pulse Take back the night That streaks my eyes With a counterfeit Of love's saving light Take back the night Let it retreat Into the shadow-lands Of despair And free me from this Ache of soul which Saps my will Take back the night Let it leave me Let me be free again To hold aloft The sword of truth and The shield of hope Take back the night And let me live in The light of freedom Take back the night Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |

This was a powerful gut-wrenching write that appeared to be the expression of a real broken heart. I hope that this was just poetry and that you are not crying out from a place of pain. Take care, dear one Earth Angel |

Krissy: Your mum read this to me last night... and I had to fight tears. For you've captured so well the pleas of one who fights depression. This is sadly exquisite! |

Krissy - I echo what was already said. I hope you are healing. We men can be such cads (especially Toe and 'Deer). |

Krissy beloved heart, you don’t know how proud I am of you when you write like this. That you can write well I acknowledge, when you write and the emotion is so strong I applaud you, when you do so without having the personal experience or trauma in your life I stand and shout well done beloved daughter. Where did you get your talent from, well not from your fathers side of the family that is for sure And I doubt it comes from me darling heart you must have acquired it by a type of osmosis, I’d suggest that Keth check her bag to see all the talent she had before she was with us in Florida is still in her possession, not that I’m suggestion for a moment you aren’t talented darling heart, just that you are not above a little legerdemain sleight of hand. ‘Tis a good job I’m your mum and can make statements like that without repercussions, being your mum has to have some bonuses. I wub you weally you know.   Love you always And forever Mum  Breathe through the heat of our desire Thy coolness and they balm Let sense be dumb let flesh retire Speak through the earthquake wind and fire [This message has been edited by Marsha (11-01-2002 06:17 PM).] |

Krissy, this is heartwrenching, gut wrenching and astounding poetry. I've checked my bag, your talent is your own and I love the poet in you, also you're not so bad yourself. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Krissy beloved daughter I was going to summon Bev de Bump but instead you get this Bev de Bump has gone away And won’t come out to play So I thought I’d lift this one To the top just for fun If your poem has fallen down And you wear a little frown Bev de Bump will come along And boast it up with a song But Bev de Bump as you know I called but she didn’t show So I thought I do instead Even thought all these I’d read Love you always Love and warm stuff As always Mum Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Krissy, look at your inspire. take back the night it shall not stay I want the sun I need the day there must be and easier way so love hold back the night take back the night so stars may shine then I will seek a love divine I'll hold the day to make you mine and thus hold back the night take back the night to live by day and find the path of come what may if love can walk the easier way I will hold back the night take back the night till time is done I will persist and seek the sun and I will search and find the one Till then, take back the night. (10 points for you) Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
