Catch my tear and I'll wake
Sit alone but I'll be there
That's what feeling crowded is
Look at my flower sitting in the bath
It weeps, and blooms my name
I smudge my letter making no mark at all
Can you feel it yet

Fall from the rafters to the roof
Feeling the summer breeze in winter above your feet
Leader sitting on the hill
Feeling rejection

I won't come to you
Force of personal choice betrays
To know you're out there is to worry
But I feel no real pain

I am not pain
It is what you prefer
I am burning
Which you cannot choose to accept.

Ok well can you comment on it and tell me what you think. Think about the meaning beyond the writing and you will understand.

Wow, very nicely written.  I like this one.  It is surprisingly different from things you usually see on these forums.

Excellent job!

Excellent first post. This is one of the better poems I've seen. Thanks for posting, and I look forward to reading more from you.

Also, I'm putting it in my private library if you don't mind.

Whoever said "Tis better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all" obviously never loved.

First off welcome piptalk!
This is an excellent first post. Beautifully expressed, I espcially love the 3rd stanza.
I noticed that you've been replying to other's poems, which means I like you.
Thanks for sharing.

We were meant to live for so much more have we lost ourselves?
Maybe redemption has stories to tell maybe forgiveness is right where you fell.

WELCOME TO PASSIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you like it here as much as we're going to like reading your thoughts.

Check your e-mail for a special greeting.

Cause in my dreams it's always there
The evil face that twists my mind
And brings me to despair.

I would like honest opinions though, if there's something that you feel isn't right, let me know. I am open to all suggestions and advice. Thankyou.

You are great. I have been writing for over a year, and have never seen such young talent. What do you suppose you'll post next? Whatever it is, it's worth reading. Your first stanza has such imagery, so clear. Your every choice of wording is excellent, and it came from the heart. There's nothing needing editing, you have no structure, and it came from the heart. It flowed right from the heart, and it's amazing. I was taken aback with this poem, and I hope to see more. It shall go into my library, and I'm wishing I had many more of your poems to do this with. I encourage anyone who reads this to tell ascending_ecstasy what they think of her work. He/she must be convinced it is good. A writer is always down on his/her work, although, he/she did choose post it here, so maybe there is little liking to the piece? Anyway, ANYONE who reads this, MUST leave a comment. Thankyou, your work was wonderful.
