Stakes in the sand And the hand rises high While I lift my eyes To a dream flying by Breaks in the words Poured out upon all these souls Never turn, take it back Never learn, take it back Walking to Paradise Taking my time And i can't tell you why I can't sing those songs here I can't soothe your fears Walking on tired feet Ancient ground burning me Faded books on the road Jaded looks, lost and cold Dreaming in borrowed skies Screams from the sand, they rise All this is come to now All we can do is bow Breaks in the words Wasted on all these souls Rising to haunt the stars Singing of death and scars Never turn, here you are Never learn, you've come too far copyright 2009 K.E.

Greetings, DharkOne! A very intriguing piece of writing! It got the wheels in my mind working! lol ~ and I like that! They get a little rusty when I'm spoon-fed the gist of a poem! lol These were my favourite lines ~ "Walking on tired feet Ancient ground burning me Faded books on the road Jaded looks, lost and cold" Giving you a warm, welcoming pip hug, Earth Angel |

Yo DharkOne, Welcome, and thanks for not “singing of death” entirely. Bobby |

Thank you for your welcoming words and your enjoyment of my writing. To Robert : I find it overbearing to make one's art oppressively dark, ( or, conversely, nauseatingly "upbeat"), and seek to render a proper balance whenever possible. At times when the muse is off-balance, those works rarely, if ever, find themselves before the eyes of another. |

DharkOne, I knew I would get to your first poem one day soon. It's interesting quote: I liked those lines a lot. They just reached out to me. Again, welcome to PiP. I hope you keep sharing with us. Alison |

Thank you all. I'm kind of sluggish right now in the creativity Dept. And I already know better than to wake a sleeping Muse, so....... |
