Ok. I have decided that I wan't to post again! I'm back!

Sky's Empty Light

Walk me through this fireless
Street of love and leave me
Lying in the sands of thought
through the weakness of this empty light

Loose this hour
and shatter my
amidst loss of
the northern bright

And like the stray dog
that barks, but won't bite your hand
Or like the conquering sword
that gives shelter to your sky

Taken in by a silver lie
now this stray becomes,
it now spawns, and stays,
taking shelter from the sulfur sky

Burned and delayed
Lost and decayed
Taking shelter from
The Sky's empty light

-C.M.

I really like the ending to this poem.  It adds a darker tone to the poem, ending on a whole nother note.  Very well done with that!

I really like the content you have going through the piece.  The metaphors were picked up easily, making for an easily understood underlying theme.  All the stanzas flowed well into one another, and the language you used was well done.

Overall, very nice work, here, Carlos!  I'm pleased to be able to read some of your work, seeing as you're obviously a talented poet.  I look forward to reading more, soon  

Good work.
