The lake ripples in the breeze, once in this water there was happiness now lives betrayal the sky is dark in this place the rain never stops the thunder crahes into me an introduction to my disease there is blood on this trail whimpering and broken the wind storms against my back Thousands of years have past your back covered in lash marks the sun narrows you're blinded in desperation there is no more fire The conquest is now dead Lying under the willow blood congealing the flies have found their next meal fingers curved over his chest eyes the color of rubies The hour slip by so slowly midnight catches hold his body rises the myth his voice howls nothingness he moves as still as death Snap back to the future the memory of his past burns his heart the undead the unrealistic fairytale the heart The skies are black, the sun has exploded a love story lost the mists of yesterday gone, Nightmares... The heart of the beast continues to thrive.... Regina Note: well, yes,...that is a very weird poem....meh...hope you enjoyed it. "heaven truley knows that thou art false as hell...one that loved not wisely,but too well..she swore..'twas a strange ,'twas passing strange"-othello |

(big hugggsssssssss) For now this will be the situation, but know soon the gentle butterfly of love will come suckling on the flowers of your dreams again and the sweet gentle grace will believe it or not chase the beast away! (sad sigh) I send heart hugs and my vote your way, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Long and short to read, but enjoyed nonetheless! It reminded me of a scene in William Golding's Lord of the Flies (which my english class last year over analyzed and wrecked the very essence of the book) where the children are trying to kill each other... Okay, maybe not the best of scenes to mention, but the tone of the poem just reminded me of it. Liked it muchly! Leah |
