Array ( [sid] => 38373 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Seeker of a Soul [time] => 2004-03-12 14:35:02 [hometext] => The abstruse recluse that holds my muse; a wandering victim of pain's abuse. [bodytext] =>
The seas of silence shrieking bear
A pulsing crimson, anguished flare
The pearl pain, by sorrow stained
A hollow gaze forever there

Shackled to the vagrant truth
A murmured corner the lost ones sleuth
Immortal cries, the lifeless skies
A violet blanket smothers youth

Imprisoned by the scarlet vein
A mockery of borrowed lies
Death flows within, rememb'rance chains
At birth his life was slain

His voice is naught but ling'ring echo
A wishful tear in decrescendo
A prayer to words in helpless plea
The shimm'ring in dazzling sea

"Gaze away these hollow eyes
Blaze into my sorrow skies
Raze away my borrowed lies

Stunning. This made so many thoughts and images leap into my mind. Written with zenith talent, everything worded elegantly, intriguing rhyme scheme...this is solid gold from start to finish.

Truly,
-V.S.

I took this too literally over the first few reads, yet I managed to penetrate the crust of your intent, having reverted back to your introduction/synopsis.
Coruscant in its terminal plea -
Excellently expounded.
Thanks for sharing.
