Butterflies' Grave Where are you Star that glows to shine light to two eyes Away like a dove into the clear blue Away like running fireflies Do you feel The sadness that claims the heart of your love A faint flicker of hope only feeds this peal Waiting to hold that gentle dove Is it a dream My sight of beauty forever a dark grave Could I redeem If such a fault not even the mirth of butterflies could save Flowing like quenching rain Can this be only for me Those tears that light up the dreaded pain Take away my eyes from the flame but the fire I can still see Oh please another chance Let us touch once more Let us finish this waltz oh this endless dance We shall love again forevermore |

Eskendale, Firstly, WELCOME TO PASSIONS This is a beautiful start over here from you...Have a nice stay here... Regards, sudhir My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out I'm feeling kind-a-shaky, my mind is full of doubt All I ever think about, is fearing fear itself, Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor Sweep 'em up. Throw 'em away, don't want 'em anymore Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night, Still there are the questions, no answers in sight Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Starin' out the window, everything is just too bright Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor, Wish I could unscrew my head, and kick it out the door... You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange ~ Strange ~ Joe Satriani (Flying in a Blue Dream) |

Eskendale, well the fact that you can pen such a beautiful piece and with such heart, you have no need to hope for respect. You have mine and will get from many a poet in here. We are not like the other sites that spend more time tearing a new poet to bits instead of seeing the beauty in a poem. Of course we have a section called "Critical Analysis", I don't venture their, but even in their our people are kind and helpful. Welcome and look forward to your talented writing. Parker |

Eskendale, "We shall love again forevermore" This must be my favorite line. I enjoyed them all, but this one jumped out at me. No matter the ending, it's happy. Well Done and Welcome to Passions! ~Sheri |
