Purgatorial Incarceration

Like the kiss of
death,
rain falls

d
-r
--i
-p
---p
--i
----n
-g

on my heart

Fragile,
pale, hopeless.
Still, lifeless, empty.

bitter songs...
empty air...
timeless ache...

No hope.

With the
darkness,
comes confirmation.
With the
light,
comes pain.

with the onslaught,
of awareness,
comes...

not you...

I
am

alone.

First I must say you're not alone in any way other than physically. Second - I really like the way you shaded your words...It intrigues me how colors identify with our emotion so well.

You are not alone at all my friend. I find myself drawn to your use of color as well.

Christopher: I know what I feel when I read this and the only thought that goes through my head is 'share a hug with me?' Hope is opening your eyes, thinking that next thought, taking that next step..little things, but all mean you have hope..

HUGS

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Well presented Christopher

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints in our heart and we are never ever the same.

Thank you all for leaving footprints!!

Thank you all, the hugs and camaderie are dearly appreciated. As Balladeer said earlier and I'm sure many others have before...this is my family, a home away from home. Dysfunctional, arguementative, but also supportive and caring.
All of you mean the world to me, and will live forever in my heart!

I second that, the colors but the format
was just as important to the feeling being
conveyed...very alluring.
