In the recent past I broke up with my gf of 3 years.

Ressurrection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I thought it would never die
the inferno of dancing flame
yet now where there was once a heart
smoldering charcoal does remain
The water that was once so pure
that reflected a soul of gold
now reflect the stranger
of a soul already sold
Slowly you sucked out all the color
and left me here in grey
you have me hope then stole it
and left me to decay
But the ressurrection takes me
lifts me from the dirt
and I embrace it all
though still I remember all the hurt
So I hold her to my heart
and try to drown the pain
the coal has met it's match
for the flame does dance again
So I begin my descent anew
invite the agony yet to come
enjoying every moment
with the words "I love you" on my tounge.

Wish in one hand, then shit in the other and see which one fills up first.

And so you come full circle. Love - pain - love. Good poem, but I don't like your signature line...just a personal preference.

Yes, I agree. It was a good poem! I liked the "sucked out all the color." That really added some emphasis.

I have to agree totally with deVine on this one - both on the poem and on the signature.
Would you kindly consider changing that?
