Array ( [sid] => 81424 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Pale Faced Memory [time] => 2005-01-25 14:23:09 [hometext] => The loss of a loved one and the reflection granted in fantasy painted this tragic poem. [bodytext] => I silently wish to take her back, as her face burns right through my soul
I will have her, beauty of only a dream may I know her
phantom maiden or realities mistake, either do I take
blinking eye, second guess the fantasy
Tumbling down of logic, the vines cover my face
stone face the dream comes again
Face of a god, a dream, a life, all as one
A question found and an answer to life lost, she complicates this reality
complex little beauty, wound up in my mind
Or is she real, is this world all a lie and what I see in secret the only truth
her hair flickers as a dying flame, the night becons an effort to take her now
do I dare take what is mine, her heart my stepping stone
a sacrifice of mentality to bloom blood rose and die or a giving of soul and bring life to
what I know to be
Would I give my eternity for a second with you, the answer swells within me
no life would I rather have than a life where yours is one with mine
sweet phantom, dark illusion, ghost of a person long since gone
This world, she could not sustain
Her heart, her soul, too frail from the struggle
Yet beauty and vitality so firm
I would give all I have, all I could to pluck from fates cruel hand
the whisper, the dancing esteem that I wage this life so readily upon
No sacrifice too small, no pitfall too deep to challenge
for this turning of destiny- darkness, light one in the same
all to set free her frame, her soul from captivity spring [comments] => 2 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 39 [informant] => Maxximus [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )
A Pale Faced Memory

I silently wish to take her back, as her face burns right through my soul
I will have her, beauty of only a dream may I know her
phantom maiden or realities mistake, either do I take
blinking eye, second guess the fantasy
Tumbling down of logic, the vines cover my face
stone face the dream comes again
Face of a god, a dream, a life, all as one
A question found and an answer to life lost, she complicates this reality
complex little beauty, wound up in my mind
Or is she real, is this world all a lie and what I see in secret the only truth
her hair flickers as a dying flame, the night becons an effort to take her now
do I dare take what is mine, her heart my stepping stone
a sacrifice of mentality to bloom blood rose and die or a giving of soul and bring life to

No sacrifice too small, no pitfall too deep to challenge
