I felt fire in my blood Running, burning, scaring the veins! That was when I could feel That's when I was alive and free When I breathed the air around me It felt fresh, bringing new energy Into my psyche and my flesh Now nothing is left but Stale dust that enters my lungs I swallowed the bitter pill and it made me choke Anymore I just walk through the motion Step through the doors of a vaguely familiar place I make no doubt that I don't belong there Yet I find myself there day in and day out Wandering through the halls As a ghost may pass through The castle corridors In the middle of the night Wandering aimlessly but with a hidden agenda Unseen Unheard Unnoticed Headstones stand in the midst of thick mist Mindless mist, where anarchy reigns Yet the creatures inside Understand not what they do Do they see the graves they dig? So diligently and speedily I stare, and only feel a chill If that is possible in the vacuum of space Thoughts Does a star ever feel a chill? |

 (sigh) Oh Oksana, this wonderful poem gave me the chills; my heart goes out to your tears and I can feel the tears behind your words! (sigh) I know these feelings ever so well, but I know deep down as long as you believe in yourself and listen to your heart, you will share your love to many and you will be seen, noticed, and heard as your love is returned. (sigh) We all love you so much, sweet Oksana, always hold hope close to your golden heart! (big hugggsssss) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Oksana, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
