DEAD SPIRIT You have ripped the flesh from my bones, yet I am alive, I breathe, I smell,I touch but cannot feel, the lips I have always kissed, have betrayed me, betrayed me with lies of deceit, have kissed another, these eyes of mine, which are windows to my soul, are shattered glass, no one can look upon them now and see the beloveded, for it is the doomed! Abandoned place, shadows are dark,days are long, time has no meaning,no barriers,no truths, nothing lives here, Oh my heart! will you ever come back to me? to your dwelling of the soul, For it is an empty place, a lonely existance for me to live, I cannot wait for you, no one comes to visit,no one can feel my pain, Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive, my body goes on, my spirit has died, and I though alive, feel dead inside.

Oh Rose Petal, WOW this is fantastic!! these lines ... Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive, my body goes on, my spirit has died, and I though alive, feel dead inside. These lines are me!! WOW My grief lies onward and my joy behind (Shakespeare) |

my god you write your pain with an intense ache. its rises of the page my dear. I saw part of this poem earlier today on DA's signature in another forum... and it struck me then... as soon as I saw this poem here I knew it must be where it came from... you have a gift for expressing your self. take care, jm baby dont you work so hard for this prize you've found, it will all be gone-when you turn around, cause nothing lasts forever anyway.

Very Heart-rending,, mine aches for you. Though the scars will remain, time will indeed ease the pain. jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

"Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive, my body goes on, my spirit has died, and I though alive, feel dead inside." I wondered who inked such words when I read the signature of another poem, I even comment on it. Now I know and see for myself who did. Bravo Is all I can say, I liked this poem and especially the ending. < !signature--> The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

As you know Rose I love this poem, so back to the top it goes! Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive, my body goes on, my spirit has died and I though alive, feel dead inside. "Rose Petal" |
