You Believed in me...

Three times I reached
For southern longing I had
Southern comfort I lacked
Four times I reached
For your lips; Now
Five times I reach
Five times scarred, bleeding
I wish the (queen)would
Have faith; I salute her

Six times I dare
Six times unfair
That's me. Six in a million(million)
There is only one horizon
One chance now six(six)
One hand pulling me to reach higher
This gloved hand so white like death
Too cold
Her hand so cold     (and dead)to me
I release grasp       She falls
                        I rise
Where I belong.(?)     What for?(Romeo)

"The heart can think of no devotion
Greater than being shore to ocean
Holding the curve of one position
Counting an endless repetition"

Wow, another beautiful poem.  I love the whole questioning feeling.  This is truely a work of art.  The parethasis seemed to be a bit random at first, but after reading it though a couple times, it all seems to fit really well, and they add a lot.  Fantastic!

it's really really good, only thing is, I don't really understand it all that much. but that's my fault cuz it's late and I'm tired. I've read through it several times, and the paranthesis still seem random to me...

Okay, the parantheses...they can seem random.  The first para:queen refers to the subject, a girl I know(of course).  I put it in para because its an optional word only I use for her kind of like a whisper or a second thought. Six and million is echoeing

The last two:are dead?Romeo are allusions to the play Romeo and Juliet's big death scene. I trust you know what I'm talking about.  If you don't believe me fine. It is a weak explanation, but its late and I'm tired.  I hate doing things like explaining my stuff, but I feel this time I went a bit too obscure(yippee). I apologize

I thought this was great.....the romeo part confused me but you helped in your explanation. Well done here. I love this new format and style of yours.

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

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
