Everytime They Chirp They usually go unknown to me, in my meloncholy day... but everytime the chirping of the birds finds it's way to my ears, I know that my heart is already going. Everytime I hear them, my world comes to an end. The entire existance I've been living in implodes with a silent eruption. I'm left standing there...naked, new soul...amnesia. I know not of anything but these new things about, and how much I love theri every sound and sight. My once lonesome and bitter nights are forgotten and replaced with fullfilment and gratitude even when she, the Goddess of my new life, is away. My quiet days of lost hope and faith in love now roar and toss confetty upon their dark past in glorification of their new selves. The only constant, the only knowledge I toat along with me when I morph into this seeing, hearing, floating piniata of love is that one day I may wake up and find myself deaf to the chirping and in an all too familiar place flashbacks told me no longer exists. Chirp Chirp. Jeremy D. Halstead 9-19-00 Curse not upon love, for it is the greatest of great things. Be it not love that curses you....but thy lack thereof. -J.D.H. |

"The only constant, the only knowledge I toat along with me when I morph into this seeing, hearing, floating piniata of love is that one day I may wake up and find myself deaf to the chirping" Wonderful, descriptive writing Jeremy, with an excellent command of language ... very well done! ![]() Best wishes, /Kit |

Wow... This is a very descriptive tale woven into an intricacy that all strive to reach but never quite acheive. Way to go, man. Traveller "Just as I've lived, almost unknown, A life unmarked, obscure and alone, So let me die;" -James Edward Wilson |

Wow, free verse. This is now for you. Good job at it though. You were talking about this last night so I'm glad to see it today. Just be careful man, sometimes the birds will drive you into a fit of insane rage for little or no reason. Whoa, bad flashback there, but you know what I mean. Don't worry, I'll always love you man. jason ![]() I'm not concieted...I'm convinced. |
