The dark abyss in back of throat an albatross I’ll surely choke Spitting up the last of you Won’t fall again I’m sure. I’m through. Through with hurt and death stain grip Done with blending all you’ve stripped Contagious you inside my shine stinging, bitter pride resigned Clearer now no more turmoil stomach lining clean and boiled Rays of settle grip my skin pulling, pulling spit of sin. Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

"Spitting up the last of you Won’t fall again I’m sure. I’m through." How many times have I said something like that? But unlike you, i give up easily... anyway, wonderful poem, Devina. Continue... -Sara "Your suffering will free you." |

I would venture that you being the albatross would rise above such contagion as this, and in your "Wont fall again, I'm sure...I'm through" are words of hope that I would pray you can mentor me into living and conveying in my own life. Again you prove yourself awesome, LADY!! (lol) |

This came across in a hidden dualism way as well... I had images based on your words choke, throat, spit..etc., that reminded me of a controlling requests adult theme I've been through. But yet that's a take less than implied by the poetic image here. You go, Devina! Amazing "So give life to your dreams, for there lies your survival, and cast your heart beyond those faded scenes, and I'll bring you through the storm |

Wow Devina. What an amazing talent you have for imagery. I love the way you take emotional pain and relay it in a physical sense to heighten the readers awareness of what you are going through. "Contagious you" I love the idea of the person that has caused you so much pain being contagious - really struck a chord with me. "Rays of settle grip my skin pulling, pulling spit of sin." What can I say? absolutely fantastic! |

WOW...good that it's over...ahem...this is strong. Making the break rips the soul. Hurts so bad you swear dying is alot better. It's good to get it out though. It's for sure that wouldn't be a good thing to keep inside. Hurt to read this one. Ouch! SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |
