[hometext] => I wrote this after spending a restless night not sleeping.
[bodytext] => In the night, the shadows deep You think the thoughts without the sleep Pure reality sears your mind Lies and falsities become stripped away Leaving the truth and pain to stay What do we seek, why whence we came From pen to paper, the mind the same Behind the veils of purest expression Truth lies, deep within, found what’s not sought But, displeased discard the lot Ageless wonder, timeless dawns Seeking forth to call the mourn Bright young eyes, shining steel Now new reasons to bring forth the same old deal Complexity in the things we know The world to live and let other thrive No time left for life’s small pleasures Nature shaped by mans hand Concrete jungles greet the new mans dawn Man loses his soul, heart and mind [comments] => 3 [counter] => 281 [topic] => 13 [informant] => ripshark [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
