(You're the only one, who really knew me at all...)
Descending into shadow, hidden from view
Running to escape, lingering mem'ries of you

A quivering, empty space, gone to waste
Happiness misplaced, another heart erased
The waves below crash down in mournful tones
The glass house shatters, being pummeled by stones

Structure not sound, hastily built on shaky ground
Preach something profound, where the soul below drowned
Scatter the remains of all that stays the same
Bloodied up stains point the finger of blame

Mirrored shards start to reflect a story of neglect
Mumbled sentiments spoken in foreign dialect
Cast into darkness when the sun plummets to the sea
Watery grave envelops, to silence its plea

Choking back tears, she takes one last hesitant breath
His ghostly image appears, pitching her to her death
Screaming helplessly, while she continues to fall
He was the only one who really knew her at all...

aw, Scorperina! This was phenomenal! I know love can hurt you,
but look at the brilliant poetry that anguish can and DOES inspire!

"Mirrored shards start to reflect a story of neglect
Mumbled sentiments spoken in foreign dialect"


oh wow! What a positively forlorn emotion that forces to the
forefront. You have outdone yourself with this one scorpy. Honestly.

I hope sweet, intoxicating moments find there way to you soon sweet
scorpy! You SO deserve that.

*hugs*
~Breezy
(who, in spite of all the mixed emotions rushing around our
busy lives, stills holds out hope that right will win and love unending
will find it's way to each and every one!)

My dearest Scorp this is such a sad write. You speak from the depths of your heart with this. A phenomenal masterpiece that captures your hearts true emotions.

Choking back tears, she takes one last hesitant breath
His ghostly image appears, pitching her to her death
Screaming helplessly, while she continues to fall
He was the only one who really knew her at all...

These words ring so loud in my ears Scorp.
You've outdone yourself with this very sad but brilliant piece of poetry.
May ur heart heal and may you find someone who is worthy of your love my dear friend.
I take my hat off to you dearest Scorp. You rock girl.
*heartfelt hugs to a very special Miss*

Please allow me to say, I have learned by opening up, sharing the true me, has been the best gift I have been blessed with, and to think of how long its been that I have been partially closed down. Friends are coming out of the woodwork now, and that is because I have not been distant.. setting them off to the side. Blessed twice that they were always there waiting for me. They actually knew more about me than I thought, good friends do you know. A lot of this poem is written very educational write, it teaches well all about a person and how to keep a frienship, how to open up, to share, to let others know who you truly are, and then in that way there will be others who will honestly know you, the real you, which can provide trust in each other and all others in knowing you, the real you, instead of just one or two people. Very, very lovely poem here...

Sorry I have stayed away for so long, Scorp, I know I have a lot of your poems to catch up on..
