yet another one that has a different form of poetry
tell me what you think

Breathing Closer to You



She cries tonight

                     n

                     s

                     i

                     d

                     e,



Through the lines

                      i

                      n

                      king



the tears hidden in twilight

                            n

                            to



Bowls beneath her nose.



Stream deep into windows

            These three letters

Spelling names of those who stand.

            Burn wax figurines

Only miniature Icarus’

            In the whittling away of the light,

Makes ice cold dreams

            But don’t let the fire sounds fade.



The last kiss (your first) is still remembered two days later,

So those tears long for another. Too tired to turn and look

At smiling figures that melt in your mind. They roll around

And call you to do the same. You just missed your chance

For another. (I missed it too.)




now im alone, but not lonely like before

ya sorry, the letters were all ou of alignment. now it will read ok. all the letters that go down spell their own words starting with the letter in the word from the phrase.
