So I haven't been writting as much as usual so I am trying something new, there is no thought behind this poem no plaaning, no time4, I sat at my computer and wrote it, please tell me what you think, I'm stuck and trying to find a way out and i could used some suggestions Blue Candels I lit a candel yesterday, In it I saw your eyes, The fire of your heart, Melting into disolving memories, Time came undone with each flicker, Blue wax dripped over my fingers, I stared at the falme for hours, One burned out --- I lit another, You always had blue candels, In your room they glowed, In the upstairs room they blew out, Zipped in a black backpack they broke, My candels all went out, The wind blew through my window, On it I heard the words I remember, "I'll never leave" My blue candels blew out, My desk is covered in wax puddles, The carpet is stained with their color, The ceilling has gray smoke smudges, Every night I can't help but light another, Every night I hear the words, I can't stop and the wax still drips, Until you come back with blue candels in silver moonlight < !signature--> "I'll build a wall if we can keep them on the other side"---NIN "There is no always forever, just this"-the cure [This message has been edited by Ginners (edited 12-24-2000).] |

Ginners, This is a fabulous piece! I write most of mine in the fashion you chose here, just sit and let the words come out. You succeeded at channeling your poet and crafting a fine piece. Enjoyed Much!! ![]() With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. dragonpoe |

Ginners, this is a really good write. I don't know what sort of advice you are wanting, but this poem is fine. Kethry Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there. Anon. |
