Just for fun

Black Death


Beside the water
I die
As I sit
Remembering, drifting

To a place
Lost within
Filled of 
Wishes, hopes, and dreams

The fog
Consumes the
Tears and
Desperation of my eyes

As I cast
All hope
Into the vast
Blackness of the night

Geez girl. That's some kind of good darkness. =)
(And you know I love my dark!)

Favorite thing about this is the title and how it ties in perfectly with your lines and the thoughts of sitting by the water and the fog consuming tears and desperation. How could the water not be dark after that slow death, y'know? Niiiiice!

something thrown together
just for fun since I'm hosting this





Your silence
fills the space
left vacant
by your absence

and insistence
caresses my toes

bidding
for acquiescence

Wooooo I've always loved your short powerful writes! Filled with big dictionary words hehe good thing I keep one handy lol

[SilentDream]

yeah.... nvr intentional tho. the needing of a thesaurus thing, that is.
I read recently tho that poets look for the "right" words. Sometimes, I gotta go for the ones that Completely capture what I saying. Y'know?

I'll find the complete quote and work on a new "news" header.
