She's far from patience And beauty is so thick When you find me, Worthless You wonder at the rot Open my skull and see whats inside And unravel some chains from my heart The golden ones from my red heart And look That last hope Sitting in a grave with bones Rip it out Its alive And clatter is the sound of thudding flesh Feel this It come alive Grab me from within Jerk from my eyes That beast rises To an established rise Risen again Into harmonic skies Plateau from stranded to happy And even content Just sigh... ------------ I look at God and he says, "Told you so." and tells to run along While he smiles at one of his kids The promise of patience almost must be here If you'll only wait... Given freely And Freely given let God ROAR,... in power... [This message has been edited by green_itchy_stuff (12-07-2004 12:30 PM).] |

GIS, what I meant by the other side has to do with faith. Someone that can see this world and what may be beyond. Your post remined me of faith and hope. Hope this reply answers your querry. Steve. |

Loved the first two lines, made me think of "her" as not a person but a feeling. Great writing, as always, you don't need to be told that anymore, do you? Hollow. Courtney. Won't you look down upon me, |

"The last hope" "Feel this" "Plateau from stranded to happy" "Just sigh"... aaaahhhhh.... now that was a nice kind of sigh. you always manage to tuck such beauty into the stark. we have to read "just between the lines". great poem, craig! of all the things we try to find... it's only love we keep. |

Thank you everybody. You're all friends to me. Steve- ah yes faith. Trying to try the test assured. yeah. Courtney, actually the her is an actual person, and she's awesome. But don't stop telling me. I like to hear it. lol. Eve, grab those few lines that make sense and do have the beauty that I didn't realize were actually in that order. And that being the case and you were the one who picked it out, who's the more beautiful? love ya man. -GIS let God ROAR,... in power... |

"Risen again into harmonic skies" is where I get my sighs....aaaahhhhhh....lol Since we're pulling out beautiful lines... Nice write, my friend. Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere |

darkness, actually this isn't really a faith based poem. I was talking to Her and She inspired me and with this inspiration I thought about the honor my friend spelled out to me the other day. So I brought it back around and gave thanks to my maker for the beauty he gave me that isn't from me. Sorry I know this reply is a little thick. thanks -Purity its only beauty grasped by the beholding eye's heart. Like a reflection. lol. Thanks -GIS let God ROAR,... in power... |
