In reckless day and age, stone increments mark the way- Adding fall upon fall of tears, to lace my placid path, The Legacy continues to grow, as I weep soft and slow- While this oblivion terminates the strength that I have. Sightless I stager along, humming this bitter-sweet song- Of majestic butterflies mourning, beneath the star-filled sky, Sipping of passionless wind, praying for heartaches end- I forfeit yet another tear, at my own exhausted denial. Straying onward in destitution, befallen with resolution- Dreaming of souls in sweet love- I do guiltily crave, Bound by desire of Fate, I realize but a moment too late- That such aspiration has lain the Legacy I walk today… Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Your legacy is not yet known gentle one. . . you have much to go and farther to see. . . one day you will find that which you seek. . . I know that it doesn't seem so, but you will. . . I can feel the longing and the sadness in this one. . . take heart gentle spirit, you will discover your legacy. . . ---------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

I've walked this trail of bitter tears -- I know this journey well -- I've left my blood upon the stones When, in despair, I fell ... I shaped my armor out of Faith -- My blade was Destiny -- But such were shown of little worth To thwart Inconstancy; When every step upon this road Comes closer to the fall, Is not the wisest choice, in truth, To never walk at all...? Just one of those moods, hun ... liked the poem, it spoke to me. --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |

That was beautiful "Dreaming of souls in sweet love- I do guiltily crave" I know this feeling all too well. I am in awe at the beautiful of your words and saddened by the emotions. Every legacy grows out of pain but triumphs in hope. [This message has been edited by brian madden (edited 05-12-2000).] |

Sightless I stager along, humming this bitter-sweet song- Of majestic butterflies mourning, beneath the star-filled sky, Sipping of passionless wind, praying for heartaches end- I forfeit yet another tear, at my own exhausted denial. ------------ powerful poem D, very strong emotional images... your not even close to knowing your legacy... your just getting warmed up. take care girlie girl jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving How one move just puts me by myself There you go just trusting someone else Now I know I put us both through hell ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me And I'm not sayin We ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let you get away from me. ~MB20~Leave |
