Eerie in bed I lay My sight peering through darkness As if 'twas something there But I see nothing I see nothing Our love is a flame Depending on me But the fire is almost out And I'm running out of wood There are sadness to come Sadness yet to be I seek it, I've sought it 'tis the only thing real (What is this dream? Covered by gory anguish And I wonder on me and you But it's like you allready knew) Are you happy now? Are there any bliss left? Will our love thrive, Before everything's passed away? I thought, I believed 'twould be us Am I wrong, are we withering? Have I loved in vain? Will it all slip into oblivion? Devouered by the eternal slumber of melancholy My sight now peering through time As if a future was to be But nothing I see Nothing I see Modus vivendi What'll be will be I bleed crimson tears Awaiting the eternal melancholy (...It's like you allready knew) -------------------------------------- "To be loved is all I need And whom I love, I love indeed" -Samuel T. Coleridge |

broken, loved the sense of fatalism and melancholy in this write. I also loved your Coleridge quote. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

I really don't think I can help you with your english since I'm not that good with english. Even though I'm American.  Keep your head up, Broken. Before you know it something will come along to help make things clear and you don't want to miss it. I really liked your poem. The darker side of love... but just as real.... and a necessity. Thank you for sharing. Be kind, be true, be bold, be you. |
