Cold Black Night Date: Thursday, 1st December 2005 @ 07:47:13 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: enigma Cold Black Night Hope, Lady Hope, sweet damsel of the morrow... siren melody, beacon of sterile white, our eternal escape from sorrow... such a lady, this vaporous flame, this substance less numinous waif, this heartless temptress, coyly enticing the lame to walk rotten timbers as if were safe... this lady, this promising bud that never blooms... this hilltop mansion with cold empty rooms... the promised dream that never comes... the promised companion that forever runs into the cold, black, night. rko This poem is Copyright © enigma Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
