THE DARKEST PATH

The flames behind,
I walk alone the darkest path I chose
The wind is warms my weary bones
I've but my soul to lose

The shadows creep,
the wind blows low the leaves about me stir
Like devils in the afterglow
they bring back thoughts of him.....

I finally come up to the beach,
the thoughtless happy waves
The pain of love beyond their reach
only mortals are it's slaves

I wade into the icy cold I feel death's fetid grip
My soul has truly long been lost
I yearn for Neptune's crypt

The flames behind, i go alone
the darkest path I chose
The chill it warms my weary bones
I've but my soul to lose

this is so well written and expressed...the dark emotions of it hold the reader
very good work in this piece.
take care, jm



 and you can say baby...
baby can I hold you tonight
maybe if told you the right words...
at the right time,
you'd be mine...
baby can I hold you tonight...
