Moonlight rises from the eastern mountains, Illuminating the tears running slowly down my skin. I whisper for you...for hope...for love...for breath Broken hearted I scream, beg, yell, search for death. The sorrow of my misgivings crushes my chest. You're entwined in my blood, I've become possessed. The emptiness of my soul takes the light from my eyes. Anger erupts from my gut, boiling, raging, intensifying. I strain to understand, to break through, to release. It's coming slowly, in the quiet I feel it, the freeze. Your dreams come to me, haunting, torturing, mocking. Every piece of me is intoxicated with remembering... Memories chain me, my hope enslaves me, I struggle uselessly You have stolen my power, help me, set me free. |

Leticia Welcome to Passions! Your "amateur" poem is profound with silent hope... and you will become better [although the gist of it all was prime with angst!] and so, I hope you will find this your new poetic home, and that your passion for Passions will find a wild review over time. Please, check your email for a Very Special Greeting! " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love ~*~ KRJ |

"You're entwined in my blood, I've become possessed." Probably one of the best lines I have ever read. Welcome to Pip!! I hope to read more from you soon. Jess |
