My darkness calls
in a hushed requiem

Eyes pale as my soul
and arms outstretched
like stiff ropes

The song is slow
and sweet
reminding me of death's release

I am embraced by finality
and those cold hands feel warm
against my skin

The beauty shifts
into something more solid and hard
and now I remember being in clenched fists,
pressed up against the wall
and wondering where the fire had come from

But now it is the ending-
this requiem-
which is sought

I sing of death
and dream of the end
when I shall be embraced by finality

And strange

I don't dream of you any longer... [comments] => 4 [counter] => 167 [topic] => 6 [informant] => Blu [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

This was another good write, I haven't been around the site lately,
but am glad that the first poem upon return that I read was yours.
I loved the pictures I got in my mind reading this, and the lines that stuck
out most were:
"those cold hands feel warm
against my skin"
Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed it.
