Array ( [sid] => 21661 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Fallen [time] => 2003-08-09 12:25:00 [hometext] => The act of dying can be most tragically beautiful. [bodytext] => The black rose, wilted
With withered petals
Softly comforting each other with
Whispers of reassurance
Droops ominously to its doom
Falls from its high perch of grace
Falls without a sound
An image of fading beauty
Frozen within a frame
Where I long to reach out
My hands grasping yours
My heart melting within yours;
Fire and ice, merging to form
A sculpture of horrific splendor
Molding a promise of love and death
Within it's curves.

The black rose, stoic
Descends in an act of finesse
Embracing the apathetic Ground
A silent tragedy
Unnoticed by oblivious feet
Except as an object of demise
Abandoned, soon to vaporize
Giving existence a final kiss.
And now we are no more
I sleep, darling
Because we are no more.

Softly comforting each other with

Droops ominously to its doom
Falls from its high perch of grace
Falls without a sound

My heart melting within yours;
Fire and ice, merging to form
A sculpture of horrific splendor
Molding a promise of love and death

Giving existence a final kiss.

beautiful but at the same time horrific words,
you draw a great picture of love wrapped in darkness.
I especially love your ending.
Good Stuff.

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. ©
