I Vacilate |

I Vacillate I vacillate when near extreme When looking for the core of mean Chasing rainbows with a tear Living with the taste of fear I falter right before the door I fear the entrance to the core I fear the feeling of let go Of everything I have and know To fall into unknowns abyss To trade the sun for sheer darkness To burn into a pile of ash All that is and think is trash I feel the sting of daily death On each and every daily breath Yet in the dreams of nightly fly I wish the sun and only sigh I hover like a bell in chime The melody of father time |

This is incredible. I'll have to read more of your work sometime- because I really enjoyed this. I liked- "I feel the sting of daily death On each and every daily breath Yet in the dreams of nightly fly I wish the sun and only sigh" Thank you for this poem |

"I feel the sting of daily death On each and every daily breath" great poem. I think all life is but a moment in between the swing and strike. |
