Pass the Poem.

Sun Nov 22, 2009, 9:42 AM
  • Mood: Fear
I froze when I saw his hands where mine should be; caressing
Like a winter morning, he was cold. Like a wind whistling
Cold he was, but every touch left a streak of glaring heat upon her skin.
November bites, December gnaws; neither match the dully dead
emotion that begins to rise, a taste of blood and bile
The writhing stench of deeds best left in a dark past
blinds me as it controls with a disembodying numbness.
Self control being a lost memory
Lost like the life that once was there.
In his still-open eyes I see the emptiness inside of me
and inside of me is where i hide, nothing is there, no one to find me; my place of hiding.
Shut away, behind lock - there is no key - my guilt, my consciousness
My rage running hot, but frozen. All is frozen, still, unreal.
But... it is real ... What have I done??
I stare through the flickering pictures, it flashes again across my eyes,
Painted portraits, memories, held back, too long denied
Shattered before this mirror I stand, willing the want away
He used to call me his bright red star; now, I will swallow him whole.

Just for now, while I figure out how I can make my page interesting and cool again. How are you, Advisor?

Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out til too late that he's been playing with two queens all along.

Now watch closely, everyone. I'm going to show you how to kill a god.

thanks for the watch. i'm in a slump right now so you might not see much new stuff coming your way but i might take this opportunity to revise older poems. i would totally dig it if you offered some perspectives on some older stuff in my gallery, particularly [link] if you had any thoughts on it. but ya, thanks again. hope not to disappoint!
