light in a dark soul |

awake, o sleeper from thy slumber!! time is calling to you, whispering events. watch for the friendships and love for which you hunger, they pass by without a fond farewell. Each Pill of Desperation you ingest pushes you further from your imagined darkness. Take heart!! the light overcomes the black digest. good shall trample evil and hope will pass through our hearts. the peace that surpasses our knowledge will prevail, when trial approaches and ill intentions sprout, the Light of Life rips away the dark veil, allowing calm to enter in unobstructed. Nights of sadness and sorrow will come points of hate will pierce like daggers but love keeps it pointed at none. and for once fear releases its deathly grasp from around your youthful soul, the freedom involved starts to heal, and soon you'll be made whole |

young_blood.. I agree this is very interesting.. I love the way you described the highlights in the poem here. I always love your work.. it's got a dark sense to it. "watch for the friendships and love for which you hunger, they pass by without a fond farewell. Each Pill of Desperation you ingest pushes you further from your imagined darkness." These are my favorite lines in the whole poem.. watch for the friendships and love for which you hunger... wow.. what more can I say..each pill of desperation.. I can really relate to that... I know you probably want some contructive critiques but I don't have anything bad to say about this.. great job.. ~Heather~ Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes. |

You may be 19 Alex, but you have an old soul. Your writing has a beautiful and refreshing quality. Reminds me of the days when poetry was more...poetic. You're very gifted. ^*^Angel^*^ |
