Hey everyone!!!! I got a wierd idea... How about a chain poem? I will post here as a reply the first 4 lines, and if you want you can add to it!! Rules: 1. only 4 lines per reply 2. you may enter more then once, but you may not reply twice in a row. In other words there has to be a reply of another poet in between... 3. Keep with the theme please... Hope you will join me in this crazy sounding effort for a challenge! Darkness upholds Light as much as Holiness downs the Evil within... |

A CHAIN of PAIN and LOVE Locked I am within A chain made of sorrow But my key is made of love To break free from my chain Darkness upholds Light as much as Holiness downs the Evil within... |

I have but one love to free love's captive For mine heart yearns after thine heart only... How do I swoon thine love in battle's midst? How do I forge thus key to prison's door? |

Little do I know how to break through the heartless shackles, Clueless I am and completely pained in sad demystified awe, Just last time we met, we shared pleasant moments in chuckles, Tonight I am lost, floating in memories of your promised love. |

The hearthless shackles are lies Seducing lonely moments To your arms enlaced in memories Calling truth to unlock the fantasy |

Let then the ultimate truth by itself be unravelled, May the mystery behind the painful silence disappear, May sad roads on this night that my heart travelled, Be replaced by your pleasant aura, may love reappear. [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (edited 07-27-2000).] |

I rebuke thou tempestuous viper! A knight's chivalry breaks thine dragon's head... I destroy thine evil lies, Oh Lucifer! And return mine Love's undying favor. |

Unshackle me from these prisoned walls, Bring out the love laying deep inside, Rid me off the pain from my soul's halls, May, in these chambers, love again reside. |

Thou art mine dragon slayer, most Lovely, In quest of mine hallucinatory key... I know thine love shalt return from battle's cry-- I know thine love shalt open mine bosom's door-- [This message has been edited by Lighthousebob (edited 07-29-2000).] |

Love unfettered is my goal But for now this pain rages, Requite my love, find the key Be the one whom my pain assuages! |

It sounds so great, This mission to find love divine. But the key is old, The lock rusted shut. kynder ((not as poetic as the rest of you, but hey, i tried!!! Sunshine can not bleach The snow, Nor time unmake what Poets know. Ralph Waldo Emerson |

At mine knight's conquest shalt bygones pass As shalt mine drudgery's garments unfurl... Alas, unshackled chains fall to vibrant streets! Alas, emotions race naked to victory's arms! |

I told you so it was just fantasy Love only exists in poetry In real life only pain survives A dream passing through our lives monique |

Mine victory stolen! Mine knight captive! Seduced by thou evil wench's sorcery... To whom shalt I controvert love's defeat? Shalt I plunge mineself in arms of darkness? [This message has been edited by Lighthousebob (edited 08-02-2000).] |

Then take away this darkness residing deep inside this soul, Throw upon this evil darkness, Let love through the soul's hole. |

Why upon my noble head The scars of darkness burn? One must learn to love ones self Before true loves returned |

i seem to be late of the party And whilst I await loves bright return each day seems to grow darker evermore I'm fearful that the light I yearn Will blind night eyes to my love of yore Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil.

Deep into love's mirror I gaze Only to to see a skull in grey, Help shatter this glass of craze Erase the painful hurt, I pray. |

With the pain inside All in all it seems That perhaps love Exists not only in dreams Darkness upholds Light as much as Holiness downs the Evil within... |

Perhaps! There is hope For love to come for some But for others love is a stranger Waiting to be invited |

So who is willing to love me? Who is willing to take care of me? Who is willing to touch me? Who is willing to marry me? |

I shalt displace mine fine satin garments With brazen steel and a cloak of vengeance... I shalt annihilate thine darkness, Satin! And destroy mine Love's infatuation. |

I just want to look one more time At the invitation of love in chain Will I turn into a statue of salt Painfully realizing I can't let go |

I rise mine sword in thou eyes of darkness And scream at thou fleeting wind, "I am free!" Mine chain removed, I race on velvet wings... Mine pain endured, I love in words that sing... |

I wait for my beloved knights return, only he holds the key for which I yearn, for it is only he within my heart so felt, only he can unlock this chastity belt!< !signature--> debbie Think of saying "I Love You" as always being overdue. Love is a gift, not an obligation. unknown [This message has been edited by mysticharm (edited 09-10-2000).] |

Alas, my valiant Knight is dead, I grieve not so much for him but for the golden key. Alas, there is another I have spent my time with, who is it you may ask, why the local locksmith! [This message has been edited by mysticharm (edited 09-10-2000).] |

And so it was done, the locksmith called, Who fitted a key of his own, Now a widow am I, I mourn no more, My heart belongs to the one with a key What I write and others read is your own experiance and perceptions. |

The King's locksmith gallantly rushed to free me. For inside his tunic was the master gold key. My promise I must keep, it wouldn't be right. But when he's not looking, I scout out the Knights. |
