NIGHTMARE! < !signature-->There I lay, ever endeared. Alas, all in life once feared. In perfect calm, now swept away To subtle shade of yesterday. Magic musing in the thought Of all I loved in life for naught! Form hell's lifelong captivity A spirit now forever free. Pain left behind, I grace the sky, On new found wings of death I fly. To rise above a world condemned Of would be loves who called me "friend". A specter of blackness portrayed, I come to you in visions frayed. To lay my palm cold to you chest That never again, may you rest! Lo, by every dark dreaming night Shall wings of this demon take flight. Upon Sanity's walls I creep To steal all peace that comes by sleep. To feast upon your bleeding soul, To break you of all self control! Forgiveness bless the fool who dare, Lo, for the rest - Call me Nightmare! Michael Anderson For all behind was dark and drear, And all before was night and fear. How many hours of night or day In those suspended pangs I lay, I could not tell; I scarcely knew If this were human breath I drew.

Sad Michael, but no sorry I couldn't call you a nightmare, but a little piece of heaven here on Earth. When will you believe that?? *hugs* I'm online now so Icq me my Liege.. 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...... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Very, very good Michael...but just as they have said...I don't think that you could ever be called a nightmare. Atleast not by me.

Form hell's lifelong captivity A spirit now forever free. ------------ To feast upon your bleeding soul, To break you of all self control! Forgiveness bless the fool who dare, Lo, for the rest - Call me Nightmare! ------------ I choose to call you what I always call you... amazing...gifted...talented...awesome... poet extraordinaire... (tell me when you want me to stop) take care, jm Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be jackson browne |
