Imprisoned as a captive thought dreams lay in my hopes for tomorrow Morning's fragrance so sweet and clean, remain moist with tears of sorrow Should in passing would we meet, inclining to be gracious, much more each one of us could see how strong our love had made us Without your touching gift for word, my pen lays uninspired Ghostly figures impressed in pulp, tell sadly of spent desires Like scattered leaves in tortured breezes, so my poetry has fled All my memories once so vibrant, lay still now amongst the dead ...just bein' Bluesy |

ooooh! That was absolutely haunting...Like a tune stuck in your head...the emotion it evokes...you plunge a knife...then twist it. the pain is perfect. ~L |

Such dreams, in my experience, have a way of returning, my friend . . . New Seasons and Old Seasons - my dreams tend to be both. j. |

This one goes straight to my heart - especially the last verse. I've said many times that I can't write happy - those voices in my head stay silent when the heart is singing. But pain can go deep enough that there aren't any words to do it justice... and death certainly inflicts that pain. Beautiful, thought-provoking write! |
