Array ( [sid] => 141506 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Spotlight [time] => 2008-04-10 16:24:13 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Light dims to darkness through windows
As shadows dance to their swansong along walls
A drop of rain falls on my hand
First feeling I have felt in days
Promises of spring just around the corner
The overcast seems dreary and ready to collapse under depression
The sky won’t tell my secrets
Traffic from a near by road roars like fire
Digging a silent grave for my inner most thoughts
It keeps my mind off of the hunger for spilling my every word
Like blood from a freshly cut wound
Tranquility seems a distant memory
The uprising day leads to an uneventful evening
An evening filled with nothing but unanswered questions
If only I could make sense of this ever dreaming state I am in
The feeling of midnight’s deep kiss stains my memory
So beautiful yet withdrawn
The only thing that keeps my sanity whole
I know she will never leave me
Constantly mourning the death of the past day
While giving birth to a new chance
All in a single minute
Close your eyes and take a taste of eternity
While we all count to infinity

This is very well written, so vivid. Great job!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
