At half past forgotten My story begins I sit in the darkness See if who dares wins My half-life of shadows That all comes to this A path that's corrupted By moments of bliss Forgotten, forsaken A child of the dark Malformed by the moment Of memories stark My terror and trauma Are welded by fear And captures the minutes To entrap me here A story a legend A something called myth I long for freedom And one to share with But here in the darkness Insanity grows At half past forgotten So nobody knows I scream and I struggle All to no avail The demon that holds me Will always prevail A cry in the nighttimes Means nothing more Than quick surrender A slam of the door Trapped in the madness Held to life's throes At half past forgotten The past always shows. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown [This message has been edited by Kethry (03-02-2002 05:05 PM).] |

 (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Kethry, this is so very sad, my heart goes out to you and I pray that now everything is alright and while this pain may forever rest in your past, you have found new happiness to ease the sorrow! (kiss on cheek) My thoughts are with you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing!   May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Keth darling sister of my heart and keeper of my soul this is simply exquisite, I love the flow of this darling girl it is so full of aching and pain filled sadness. This writing is so full of emotion it throbs through it, you’ve painted a picture of pure pain the type that scars a soul for eternity. This is the reason you are a writer darling heart. YOU can describe this anguish so well. Wonderful darling heart utterly utterly wonderful. You’ve always been good, actually you’ve always been pretty near perfect, but now you’re outstandingly superb. Beautiful darling heart sister really beautiful writing on a subject that isn’t beautiful at all   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

My terror and trauma Are welded by fear And captures the minutes To entrap me here Kethry - these words gave me chills as I have been "welded by fear." Very thoughtful piece of work. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Auntie Kethp this is a very powerfully written piece of history. Mum’s said it all really, you are indeed a writer of deep emotion I knew I'd suffer for letting her oust me from the computer earlier, she's got to all the poems first. Big grin Love and warm stuff As always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers |

Remembered and wanted, a poet of light. You frighten me here with the pain that you write. Freedom and love are freely given. Take them and lose the pain you have written. Nan |

Hey everyone I have no intention of scaring anyone here, but at three thirty am this morning "half past forgotten" was such a cool phrase I had to get it down and then the rest flowed. You all know how poetry is, sometimes it takes on a life (or several lives ) of its own. Deer, That's not fair! I have not set off any alarms (except in my head) and the neighbourhood stands - thank you very much!. Maree, I am amazing and so is Monica. I have discovered she is omniscient so she sees and I write - dynamic duo stand aside cause Keth and Eilidh are back together. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
