raw sadness quakes my soul. something inside crashes, breaking as glass, to cut my internal being. i bleed... wet prisms soak my eyes and sting. they fall from my face; clearly the blood of my body-- leaving me a hollow shell to call my own. my heart echoes in the emptiness-- beating viciously for the piece that was stripped away... the internal ache shuffles through the darkness to find its light-- only to find, the stream at its feet is red; there is no morning... -dgvarner "Half of what i say is meaningless; but i say it so that the other half may reach you." -Kahlil Gibran |

Wow! I loved it. "wet prisims soak my eyes and sting" (my favorite line there) Joy Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying, And this same flower that smiles today To-morrow will be dying. -Robert Herrick |
