back and forth from water pits,
I'm on one side and your on the other,
miles of landscape between us.

Acceptance swells my infernal soul,
i dont have to wait much longer,
confusion plants itself on my brain,
I'll avoid your being forever.

samurai trials and wars fasinate,
All that i can remember and feel,
Leaving memories of you behind,
Trampled weeds in the ground.

Wounds slowly seeping into skin,
slight mark seen on white paper,
prefered death has no name,
It'll end without my wish.

Somehow the static overtakes,
functions controlling my mouth,
obsanities form on the tip of my tongue,
but they've always been there.

Waiting turns into years,
whem im old enough to understand,
Matches and oil surround me,
i dont have to wait for the fire much longer. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Ryoko [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

I can really feel this poem, (yeah that sounds weird) but the anger, and angst just flows from every line. Very emotional, as I read I could feel my guts tighten, thats how I know I'm reading something really great. Thank you for writing this, I really am looking forward to reading much of your work.
Peace and Kumquats-
