In jet-black skies, in darkest night, no single light to see
In the quiet solitude of my basement
Where three in the morning finds me

My two black dogs, like ghostly shadows, by me they abide
As the peaceful winds of Dream, and Sleep
Sweep them slowly to their dream ride.

My mind is numb, my eyes are dull, my thoughts now start to drift deep as mind, and body, and soul  Give in to the tempting notion of sleep.

I fight the urge to nod off; to let my dreams free to roam
Because im worried at three-thirty in the morning
Waiting for my folks to come home.

grEAt poem!! I dunno, suddenly a song came up in my head, from a band called Within Temptation (dunno if you've ever heard of them, they're from Holland *YEHA!!!!!*)
the only problem is that I can't seem to remember the title....
But your poem was really, really beautiful!!

I dream about how it's gonna end
Approaching me quickly
Living a life of fear
I only want my mind to be clear...

Well since we're comparing bands here, i think this is written like the smashing pumpkins. Billy Corgans style is kinda like this. I like your style though, its wonderful. I write like this too at times. Keep it up, i love these kind of poems.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Personally, i dont keep up with bands (or listen to the radio for that matter), but i can still name a few drummers, and singers here and there though. But hey, thanx for the comparisons both of you. : )
