~*Her Heart Seeks Flowers*~ A shadow... he becomes her darkness blocking the warmth of her sun Mocking... he holds her moon in his calloused hands and distorts the constellations to his liking... Believing he is her God Where cool breezes once kissed her cheeks now is only the stench of his heated breath on her neck and he gifts her with kisses of her own tears Her heart seeks flowers yet... he offers only thorns and laughs with satisfaction when she bleeds Her quill dips into an empty inkwell in his attempt to stifle her pen and silence her voice She fills it with poet's tears and etches the verse upon her heart ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truly met the poet. ~vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (01-06-2003 04:37 AM).] |

yes, but without this fragile love, can there be such good poetry? easy love is boring isnt it? [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (01-06-2003 06:42 AM).] |

Indeed - Why must some put so much energy into controlling those closest to them? Perhaps they really don't have a handle on their OWN lives - Wouldn't that be a more sensible place to begin? You've penned some wise words here, Sherlock - Wise words for thought... |

Ah Vicky... how dark must be the poets' tears to fill the inkwell... this, she fears... for if they remain invisible... who shall know when the well is full... and who shall read the write she leaves, invisible tears... who would believe? [Sorry, you bumped my muse...] |

From such pain and neglect the beauty of poetry springs forth...a cruel and heartless way to inspire a poet's creativity regardless.. believe in what your heart feels... |

 (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Vicky, I know this heartache ever so much I just wanted to give my love everything but she tricked me and deceived me and said she never ever loved me when she did or at least acted like she did at one point! (big hugggsssssss) This is excellent, sweet friend, I'm adding this to my library as your words mentor me deeply, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Vicky, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
