Alone in the room of love she answers to a god that seems to lack any reason, she forces herself to attempt some kind of absolution but fooling herself is the way she cannot feel. She falls down to say why is this my pennance the silence remains and gives her the answers so with pen and vengence she writes to the world save me before I am forgotten and this time I'll remember my love for it's true, that you lose your memories what you don't remember to use. He crumbles at her source of inspiration a thousand miles and he cannot give her flirtation for he sees he is last and drifting over days and forgotten the way to hold her dear like he always used to. And they're drifting in a house that has no completion the room of love is a tomb for their failure. |

I have a habbit of looking for the one line or two in a poem that really stands out to me as clever, meaningful, beautiful, something that just sums it all up, sets the tone, brings life to the piece... I read this twice and have come to the conclusion that they all pull their own weight... each and every line is completely equal in all of the qualities mentioned above. -jaimie www.ladysixstring.com |

This holds wisdom and a great deal of insight Michael. To live in entrapment is not living at all. Very nicely written. Marina It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen Marina Crossley |
