Nothing No cleansing tears no laughter bliss, no soothing touch, no kindred kiss. In peace, release I cannot find, no edge of ease to still my mind. Darkness quenches it's thirst in taunt, no angel arms to hold in haunt. Regretful past, unraveled fray, weep of woe, my dreams decay. Undesired moth and nothing more, my bones, they break upon the shore. I am flea of destiny a worthless void in misery. Another groan, blackened day, all worth I hold fades away. Sky of scream, wingless bird, no Godly ear, prayers unheard. No pistol raping flesh of head, There is no point, my soul is dead. By Melissa P. Monette |

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Melissa, this is sooooooo heartbreaking, I hope everything is alright, for from one heart to another I know this kind of pain and I am always here for you if you need someone to talk to! (wipes tears) You are never nothing, you mean so much to us all and I know you will find everything your heart desires, we all love you so much, God Bless You! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Melissa, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Where nothing is, something soon reveals itself. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

Melissa, You are a fine poet. And all the world should know it. No matter what you get off your chest, you know that I think your the best. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (04-24-2002 06:20 PM).] |
