My sword is silv’ry smooth. A streaking starlight Bloodied crimson By storms of straight And wide eyed failure. Isn’t it ironic, How you see a flash And grin again? Thinking Fireworks hit skies. It’s all beautiful… How my body’s Beaten bruising, Leaves you artwork To enjoy! Its your Oblivion bliss, And naive laughter There’s war, And all your beach fun, Sand dune burials Are fallen soldiers Left behind. - And so it was that time stood still - (blink, breathe, stand, fight) [This message has been edited by GG (05-09-2003 05:42 AM).] |

littlewing, I know I know, I've been soooo busy lately. I'd swear someone must have taken a good 10 hours off the day! I miss reading and writing too! Thanks for the comments and hope all is well for you! Ethome, lol thank you, I tend to have weird subjects, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll explain what its about... the sword is about spiritual battle that we're always in. The flash is about the flash left when you fight what soeone else can't handle, but they see it as just fireworks because they are blind. The wounds I take for them aren't seen except as funny, and the sand dune burials are about them playing in the sand, y'know how you bury people.. this is saying they are burying actual dead bodies that were killed in battle. that probably made less sense then the poem! lol, but thank you - And so it was that time stood still - |

Ericc, thank you very much, I'm glad you think so Noah, oh I'm afraid to say but no matter how much love I have and is given to me, I'll still be bleeding because the love only gives me something more to fight for. And try as I may, I still get stabbed.. alot!! But yes, I do have comfort and I know the war is won Thank you! Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |
