I want to write Yet the words Does not flow As I feel them arise They fall like snow Reach out and touch them However, the moment It graces your warm flesh It melts against your palm and Disappears. Like a forgotten heart beat That once was heard Yet is now stalled And faint. An Echoed whisper Of what is about to come What once was pain filled And sorrow ridden Is now beautiful in death In that knowledge That what was once dead Will be reborn The words I once Found so hard to grasp Have finally rang true So, Let the bells toll! Once. Twice.. Nay, Three times... Fore life once lost Is found anew. |

Denise & Lorraine... Thank you  I think it is one of the worst feelings when you want to write what your feeling but can not find the words to express. I had been feeling like that for a few days, writing something only to dismiss it... perhaps now I have broken through the barrier. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem! Cyndey |

You described the feeling of not being able the write perfectly, in fact that was quite haunting. An Echoed whisper Of what is about to come What once was pain filled And sorrow ridden Is now beautiful in death In that knowledge That what was once dead Will be reborn The words I once Found so hard to grasp Have finally rang true great images, loved the poem. ------------------------ "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? " Douglas Adams. Small Black Flowers That Grow In The Sky "You have your very own number They dress your cage in its nature Once you roared now you just grunt lame Pace around pathetic pound games Wanna get out won't miss you sensaround To carry your own dead to swing your tyre tricks Wanna get out here you're bred dead quick For the outside, The small black flowers that grow in the sky They drag sticks along your walls Harvest your ovaries dead mothers crawl Here comes warden, Christ, temple, elder Environment not yours you see through it all Wanna get out won't miss you sensaround To carry your own dead to swing your tyre tricks Wanna get out here you're bred dead quick For the outside, The small black flowers that grow in the sky Here chewing your tail is joy" Richey Edwards |

Cydney-- I really enjoyed this poem a lot. I think this is an excellent poem and am glad to see that the words are once again "flowing" for you. Take care! Amy ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |
