I could die again today And though my flesh was made of clay I’d simply feel stains of you Tarnish me again. I could go and I could stay But no matter, there is not a way For me to escape your Ever glowing eyes. Stains of you Paranormal Supernatural Still informal ways To say you care. When I fall And gasp today Tarnish me To feel you Close beside. He was a man of sorrows ...I am a girl of tears. [This message has been edited by GG (12-01-2003 09:00 AM).] |

Loved this. Damn, I love it. Okay, yeah, I'll keep it. I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |

koko, I'm honored ![]() Its a rather confusing write unless you have a good imagination I suppose. When I wrote it I was thinking of God giving me humility... but I imagine it can be many strange things lol Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |

GG -- I love your style of writing. Very brilliant way to use "tarnish." We all get tarnished at one time or another, I think. It is the poet who is able to put that universal connection cleverly on paper and perhaps begin the "polishing" process for even more than one. Thanks. |

I feel complimented lol, thank you very much ![]() Amy, You're so sweet, I'm glad you enjoyed this ![]() Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |
