I call upon all that is or was, hear min plea's and fullfill that in which must be.

Extinguish the light that once was my heart.  For no longer does it fullfill a purpose unto this body.  

Consume me darkness, for as your father void has begun to enrich that which used to beat freely.  I embrace your doings, as though they were mine own.  

Wash over me oh winds, take the body that has crumpled beyond repair.  Send it to the four corners of no where, so that I might find blessed oblivion.  
Take the sight in which has served my not, leave me in the joys of forever night.  So that I might take of its sweet nector and ambrosiac sensations.  

Enwrap you arms around me oh sweet death, for the soul that once was mine dies, following not my biddings any longer.  End this torment in which you call living, give unto me a sweet ending and let nothingness fill all that once was me.

(No I am not suicidal.  But it is a part of me in a way that death can kill and still leave you living.)

You must have been able to look into the mind of any one of my dying cancer patients when you wrote this. As they maybe never said these words but were thinking them
Very well put Windrider.Looking forward to more...nona

Welcome Windrider. . .

This was indeed a powerful poem. . . sometimes, we must die to ourselves to achieve the transcendance we wish. . .

Btw, I love your memeber name!!  I would like your permission to write a poem with it in mind. . .please e-mail me with more about yourself. . . or see my challenge in the Poetry Challenge! forum.

Again, welcome. . .

Don't lose faith!  I understand what you mean about parts of yourself dying (who doesn't) and I think you've expressed it brilliantly.  Welcome to the familiy.

 The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition.
