Array ( [sid] => 38018 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Hopeless Romantic [time] => 2004-03-09 18:53:02 [hometext] => I wrote this after the Valentines Day incident. I was really feeling down. There are a few allusions to Dante in it (like the first line). The word cursed in the 3rd to last line has an accent on the E. I couldn't figure out how to put it in here. [bodytext] => The Seventh Circle calls out
The sun sinks its last for me
For even if I awake tomorrow
The darkness is all I will see

An illness has crept in my body
An illness without any cure
As only I can will this away
But that doesn't matter anymore

Cupid's arrow was diseased
Although its aim was true
A second shaft was never fired
And my heart has been cleaved in two

That the Forest would be this inviting
As a place to make my own
And leave all these feelings behind me
And find it my eternal home

I don't want to go on alone
When true love has revealed her name
But told me I wasn't enough
And filled me with all this pain

Tonight the tears caress me
As I head for a cursed sleep
To dream of how it could have been
With the one for whom I weep [comments] => 5 [counter] => 255 [topic] => 36 [informant] => darien [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )
Hopeless Romantic

Topic: Suicide



The Seventh Circle calls out
The sun sinks its last for me
For even if I awake tomorrow
The darkness is all I will see

An illness has crept in my body
An illness without any cure
As only I can will this away

Cupid's arrow was diseased
Although its aim was true
A second shaft was never fired
And my heart has been cleaved in two

As a place to make my own
And leave all these feelings behind me
And find it my eternal home

I don't want to go on alone
When true love has revealed her name
But told me I wasn't enough
And filled me with all this pain

Tonight the tears caress me
As I head for a cursed sleep
To dream of how it could have been
With the one for whom I weep

A wonderufl poem.. though the topic was painful you have displayed wonderfully your emotions and how you feel... though you may laugh at me or curse me for saying this.. know that time doesn not heal all wounds.. only love does that...
