Okay this one stills needs a name. I just have no good idea what to call it. Can you hear the voices in the air Alone they are, but they don't care Screaming aloud to show their pain Screaming tears falling down like rain Lonely they are in this dreaded place Lonely they are, no one can see their face Ghosts they are, flowing with the wind Ghosts they are, what problems can they mend Eyes of flame, and tongue of ice Dreaded they are, but truly nice They'll warm your heart with a single touch Until they steel it in a rush Eyes of ice, and tongue of flame Can you hear them now, calling out my name They steel my heart with a single grip And turn my life into a sunken ship |

I don't really think this ones needs a name, it speaks for it self. I loved it. Wonderful contradiction. ---Night Angel |

I can remember as a child sitting in my dark bed room listening to the angry voices of my parents in the other room.I felt so helpless.I thought if I was a better child maybe they would be better parents. paladin |

A very strongly written poem that I really enjoyed. How about Fire and Ice, seemed to suit it? You did a great job on this. ~* Imagination is more important than knowledge *~ |

This is wonderful--I can still remember the rumble of my fathers voice when my parents used to fight--it shook the whole house--I have a 3 year old nephew now & I can clearly see that children soak up everything & understand a lot more than you think! ![]() |

Interesting poem. I like the imagery. You did well on the metre too. "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh" |
