I am putting a warming on this as a precaution. There is mention of self harm but it is needed to complete this poem. So please if you are offended by that kind of stuff don't read this poem. I think it is one that could benifit from being read by everyone. =================================================== Left wandering Alone The inner streets Of my mind Where have they gone My friends My family I thought I saw them But they twist Fade A flicker A memory Bringing tears A cold wind Freezing them in place All houses Dark No fire Just cold The food Filled with maggots Frozen Poison The mirrors tell a lie Skin Bones Eyes hollow Black Sunken Scars Too defined Too dark Too visable Bruises Out of color Out of shape Out of date Old cries Echo on the wind Mourning Scorning Breaking me down The streets are littered With glass Razors Knives The grass has all died It seems failure thrives Birds that once sang sweetly Now die in the skys Blood runs in the gutters From wounds left unhealed Leaving stains Of tainted memories The mark Of sin To love that wich is like you To break your family Self inflicted wounds Their scars My reminders Like a neon sing at night You can't help but notice Withering in the light Hissing Spitting Light causes pain The night was my creator My eyes cannot adjust My skin feels it ten times worse The dark enfolds me Shooths what light has just touched Leaving me wondering Is it really worth it Living in the light When your a child of the night "Love struk my heart and it fell from the sky. I wish I wish it not to die. And if it goes and your to late I wish I wish you not to hate." [This message has been edited by spritrider87 (06-15-2005 02:11 PM).] |

Of course it is! but then, I was a child of the dark left to shine a light... kinda like some underground cave creature that can't help but glow in the dark *sheesh* thanks for sharing your lightbeam |

...Left speechless...words evade me...my feelings tell me to say something but words are too slight and too crude. I know you know how my heart beats and what it feels. But it would be vulgar of me not to show my presence and kneel before you humbled by your poetry. Yv-Goddess of Her Domain. Symbol of Truth Passion Pain. Let Her Smile Rain on the Hearts of the Innocent. |

"Love struk my heart and it fell from the sky. I wish I wish it not to die. And if it goes and your to late I wish I wish you not to hate." |
