She leaves me breathless, pale-glowing her light shines over and around me I am stone of morbid concretion in a body, frozen and inarticulate dazzled, into the silence I stare, and waver beneath the dark veil of night where giddy stars resemble coloured fairy lights electrified sighing.... I gaze upon her. Angel of Darkness June 2000 My grief lies onward and my joy behind (Shakespeare) |

wow what a cool poem love your format and presentation and the impact of the emotions are perfect great writing jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving (How one move just puts me by myself) There you go just trusting someone else (Now I know I put us both through hell) ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong (I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me) And I'm not sayin (We ever had the right to hold on) (I just didn't wanna let you get away from me) ~MB20~ She says baby, It's 3AM ... I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. ~MB20~ |

Ah! Such is the splendor of the eve. But my soul doth cry,"Who is the one which gazes upon her dark beauty?" Mystified, ^_^ Amanda Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate, Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date. Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometimes declines, By chance or nature's changing course, untrimmed. But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st; Nor shall death brag thou wand'rest in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st. So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. William Shakespeare |

Oooh Dark Angel...your words cascade down the page with a gorgeous flow and powerful emotion...Wonderful work indeed! *Krista Knutson* "Cherish your vision; Cherish your ideals; Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts. If you remain true to them, your world will at last be built." ~James Allen~ "We've made houses for hatred...it's time we made a place where people's souls may be seen and made safe"...~Jewel~ |
