Array ( [sid] => 78661 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => To those who conquer love. [time] => 2005-01-05 22:09:41 [hometext] => Several years ago I had a little problem(it's still there just receeded) called schizophrenia...I wrote a great many things then...this is the product....or one of many(this one actually makes sense^_^) [bodytext] => Look brightly, the sun breaks its own breath on the back of man, sweating
his laughter in return.
A great sea of faces surrounds me. None are mine to hold, none are mine to care for.
They are the lovers and the loved;
They are broken windows in the sun, casting their reflection into the eyes of the sleeping.
They are staring terrors to the night, lurking far into shadow.
They seem always to speak, and cannot see.

Let go you miscreants, you unloved.
Stand!
Kneel no longer before your passion, let desire no longer consummate your denial.

The night sky touches my sight, I am lifted upward; my brow is led into the stars and I see.
Your eyes burn bright, brighter, my eyes cannot catch you.
I am afraid of you, yet i seek out for you.
From high above, the trees seek the breeze,
and the grass far below seeks to be as tall and as true as the tree.
But the tree does not hold the truth, and the breeze forgets her breath.

A way to look into the human soul, deep and wide. Too bad I'm stupid and can't read the lines between the lines between the lines.

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. ©
