His mind wanders through a sterile vaccume of timeless regret a prisoner to the random impulses irregular spasmotic in a dying network of broken promises defeated dreams unfulfilled need atrophy is slow insidious darkly efficient progressing with relentless resolve driving the victim into the black hole of oblivion mercy is a word from another world another time another place compassion exists only in a dream redemption is a fantasy for fools the light dims sputters in the cold reality of truth the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Pegasus; Dark and haunting...but i've been in this place (there is redemption, i'm living proof) you have turned these deep feelings of sadness into a poetic masterpiece. ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |
