Honeysuckle,
serpent tongue,
a cry of agonies'
"too young"
and all the sparkle
all foretold
death of eyes
sale of soul
glitter fading
bitter, old--
(oh make me think
and tell me lies...)
make me sign
the compromise
on the dotted...
dotted......line...
I love you.
That, I won't deny.

inhale...bewail...
  the silver spoon...
Life...illusion...
  lost too soon.

and if i could?
  I'd live anew...
baptized
  in the morning dew...
I cannot breathe
  enough of you---
Afraid to wake
  without you there.
and oh dear god,
  oh my despair...

I wake, I ache,
  and
all's the same.

You've penned such a wonderful flow in this thought-provoking piece Serenity ... I really enjoyed this!  

Best wishes,

~Let It Rain~
Amanda Marshall
Kristen Hall

I have given, I have given
And got none
Still I'm driven by something I can't explain
It's not a cross, it is a choice
I cannot help but hear his voice
I only wish that I could listen without shame


Let it rain
Let it rain on me
Let it rain, oh let it rain
Let it rain on me


I have been a witness to the perfect crime
I wipe the grin off of my face to hide the blame
It isn't worth the tears you cry to have a perfect alibi
Now I'm beaten at the hands of my own game


It isn't easy to be kind
With all these demons in my mind
I only hope one day I'll be free
I do my best not to complain
My face is dirty from the strain
I only hope one day I'll come clean


Come take my hand
We can walk to the light
And without fear
We can see through the darkest night


Let it rain
Let it rain on me
Let it rain, oh let it rain
Let it rain on me



Sprayed across my heart and hers
Danced butterflies in the wild
This angel, this woman ,
who loves me with the innocence of a child.
~DeVante~

Serenity
serene
thy name
from
heart's ache
doth blame
not life
but takes
fact
and transforms
it to belief
and goes
on

well done, little one...

In a fantasy one time I dreamed you asked me for poetic advice....in reality, I am the one asking you.

You blow me away with how you do what you do...!!1

Michael...the depth of your kindness never ceases to astonish me...your reply is truly stunning for me...I thank you, as I blush and curtsy...oh my!

vicky?...many hugs back atcya!!! I thank you!

JB...thanks for noticing...the "list thing", I mean...I wanted to write this one "rapid fire" to convey the intensity behind the desire of addiction, not to mention the short attention span that is the result. (smile)

Much thanks and gratitude to you all.
