Well, someone told me once they never write their stuff down before they write it, which I always do...one of my few attempts at spontaneous prose.

Awakened from a wondered dream
Where all my fantasies had been seen,
To the dark shadows of a lonely night
Where in reality nothing has gone right.

Pain creeping through my tired veins
This dreariness tightening its reigns,
Realizing once awake that you are gone
Still puzzled as to what went wrong.

Reaching for you and calling your name
Drifting to sleep I again play the game,
Of having you an essential part of me
Without you there's no future that I see.

I miss your voice and your mezmorizing words
It's all so cloudy now and tantilizingly absurd,
Reflecting on the plans we had made
But I guess I couldn't convince you to stay.

Your absence now assualts my brain
Abducting all from me that use to be sane,
I'll never know your heavenly touch
Look you in the eyes and say "I love you so much"

Now you're gone and it's drifted away
Alone in an arctic darkness with nothing to say,
From now I'll question what's said to be true
But always know that indeed I love you.

"Wait, another minute, can't you see what all this pain, has [profanity edited] done to me, I'm alive, and still kickin' what you see I can't see, and maybe, you'll think before you speak, I'm alive" -Godsmack

"Those little slices of death, how I loathe them."
-Edgar Allen Poe


I edited out the profanity, because if you check the guidelines you'll find it isn't acceptable for the forums.

Thankyou, Severn

Beautiful expressions here!
Love when it comes
straight from the heart  

Into the night
I search for you
Waiting and wanting
To touch you too
Forgetting the smiles
That you give me each day
Or those beautiful words
You always say

Mags

*whispering* I am still here

My favorite part of the poem... i could totally feel what you were feeling. =(

I love Godsmack, good quote there.
I favor spontaneous poetry, I believe it allows you to write straight from the heart and soul, letting out the real emotions that are sometimes stifled down low, and therefore minimized.
Enjoyed the read.

With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..
