This crushing pain of reality, So easily destroying hope. Defaming any gladness, In Hell's aberrant joke. Straining the strings of serenity, Bludgeoning the battered soul. Laying waste the tattered battlements, Smiting the joys of old. So alone and so surrounded. Sanctioned pangs of strife. Consuming doubts of envy. In my repugnant days of life. ~~~~For my sister Anne... I love you so dearly and will miss you more than you will ever know. With any joy in life comes a consuming sorrow for how much I love you, and yet must be seperated from you. Without you I am no one...~~~~ "Close your eyes, and you'll see. Cover your ears, and you'll hear." |

Powerful emotions here. Very well written. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Very powerful write, Secret Whisper. You've penned these emotions quite well... sp everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips... every night I fantasize that I can feel you on my fingertips... |

You are wonderful. Wonderful write. Yesterday's history, tomorrow's a mystery, and today is a gift. That's why they call it the present. |
