Array ( [sid] => 30332 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => woe [time] => 2003-12-29 09:37:38 [hometext] => [bodytext] => fear binds my tongue
choke on the pain
knife to my wrist
what explanation can i give
in a simple written note
if only you could be here
to see the reasons
as one by one,
then in a steady flow
it drips to the floor...

so beautiful...

my mind hums to the beat
of my fading pulse
smoke curls around my lungs
my breath comes so...
slow...
so clear now
quiet,
yet
I
the fool
who dared brave the lions den
to live or to die
it matters not
it's ALL in the mind

long ago
two souls entertwined
broken by failure
pasted and patched
by the bitterness of time
without one
the other cannot die

screaming
awakening
to the harshest reality
Life

how long will i cry
before the tears come

fear binds my tongue
I LOVED that line as well as the whole poem. I love the vividness and imagery in this poem. The dark soul of this poem made it beautiful.

sry for commenting again but I am spellbound by this poem after reading it about 5 times. I can relate to it so well and fits my present state of mind perfectly. I must also say that this is your best poem I have read of yours so far and I must thank you for sharing this with us.

Yeah, sorry this poem is somewhat addicting. I loved these lines myself
'how long will i cry
before the tears come'
Just deeply awesome. I've felt that way.
