[hometext] => oh gosh, i havent posted anything in...over 1 1/2 years probably, but at one point this website kept me sane. this is the last thing that i wrote, substandard of course, but i'd love some comments. i always comment back.
[bodytext] => Comforting arms morph into a straightjacket And its hold will not let go Paralyzed in mind and body She lacks the strength She lacks the will, She lacks the hope—to let it go Its grip too strong around her chest There’s a suffocating heart inside Only one way for it to turn to red from blue And that’s his affection—revived anew Only his love Will resuscitate it enough For the blood to pump Just once again Another touch— Another beat Another touch— Another gasp Just one kiss— And she’ll inhale life Just one breath, And she’ll breathe too. She speaks of tears and hurt, Of a dilapidated heart. Only two ways to alleviate the pain One is him. The other death. And she’s already traced a vein… With his permission She’s set free A noose of braided fantasies Emancipated, for all eternity But there’s a chain Around her ankle Imprisoning her, to misery. But, with another touch— There’s another beat, Another touch— Another gasp Just one kiss— And she’ll inhale life Just one breath— And she’ll breathe too Once a stare that elicited smiles Now will only bring a storm And rain pour out —Tainting trembling lips A thunder, her choked sobs She’s been poisoned He’s got the cure— She’s been poisoned— He is he cure But the price is much too high And grandiose wishes cannot afford to buy Another touch— Another beat (Fallen shards of a shattered heart) Another touch— Another gasp (Oh intertwined they’re a work of art) Just one kiss— And she’ll inhale life Just one breathe— And she’ll breath too— It’ll turn her heart to red from blue, A merited bliss long overdue [comments] => 7 [counter] => 319 [topic] => 34 [informant] => drtylilsecret [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
