Deeper set eyes look back, a double glance To set in time the pain you caused Fingers still playing with the stickiness of blood Trust is a foolish word- I felt fear where you should've been, your shadows haunting me Inviting me to kiss a silver life, Taking mine or leaving you to die Tears run into open wounds, stinging the flesh you have no reason to make me hate you so, but for sheer delight in that bitter taste resting on my tongue and running out of my lips that you kissed just last night slicing me up, with the pain that's who I am it felt good overcome by addiction, I feel my reflection as it judges me speak up girl- what have you become? ***this was inspired by paranoia, insanity and riley's strange thread in feelings. it turned out a bit different than we planned, but it fits both of us pretty well. welcome to the dark side *** [This message has been edited by Wind (08-08-2003 05:51 PM).] |

Vivid. Lurid. Broken. Lost. Oh yeah, it's dark. It's also extremely evocative writing of a topic I have trouble coming to terms with. Still. It's all in there. [This message has been edited by bsquirrel (08-08-2003 06:16 PM).] |

...breathe, indeed... it also needs to be done again. The duet, I mean. Marvelous bit of interplay, you too... I cannot say I always care for "dark" poetry, but the two of you could get me to change my mind. |

I would agree with above "dark" is something that needs careful balance or it becomes mush same with "light " I suppose but you two DID do a great job yes, wouldn't mind summore snakes from the little charmers |
