Rippled blankets
across the open sky
Fire burning
with a chaotic heat
All realization
shattering her face
Smashing it into the ground,
porcelain cold and blank
Glowing brightly
in a black forest of rain
Face so painted,
drained of it's original flavor
Only a faint perfume left behind,
only the smallest remains
So faint to the touch
So real to the eyes
Carved deep within
the cheeks of her face,
tears wearing her down
So very many,
in the silence of lonely nights
Arms empty,
skin burried into the shadows
Walking lost in the labyrinth,
the maze she grew from stone
Pierce it and break it,
Make it all die away
Beating on the wall,
screaming so mute
Trapped forever here,
a tomb built of bones

I forgot to say this - I'm sorry for not reading and replying to your poems. I've been really busy lately and haven't been able to spare the time for poetry. Not even mine...but I should be able to come by more often. Thankx for your time.

Well Angel of Darkness welcome home, and this was wonderful... well thought out, a different perspective etc.  really great for a comeback  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

wow, this is exceptional...such vivid and excellent imagery...very well written...welcome back to the dark
take care, janet marie

 When you see through love's illusions, there lies the danger...
And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool
So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger
While the loneliness seems to spring from your life
Like a fountain from a pool.
