A blanket of darkness, and memories unkept
Sight of a dead flame, and ashes that lay forgotten
All of being heartless, living a life already rotten

Seated in blood, as nothing seems to change
More cracks in the mirror, but the visual stays the same
Dreams less then a puddle of mud, with no reason to reach for the sky
The haze would be so much clearer, if the shadow of death were to shine tonight

Succumbed by misery, tied to a self destruction
Withered to naught, from my very lifes reduction
Silhouette of history, ending my civil war
For the dream sought, is captured and I finally hurt no more
. . .
It's over, I'm dead evermore
Thanks for all the applauds
And every encore

The Dream Is Over

Saturating pain, uneased by the tears wept

=], such brilliance, such brilliance. i think that this would be your new best now, and maybe even my favorite =] excellent rhymes, excellent rhymes, of course. since you used them the way you did in the lines and verses. not many poets can say they did the same and conquered it like you have. splendid ending, it just changes the entire tone of the poem, and gives it a new spin and a twist. keep on penning stuff that i want to steal =]

this is a powerful poem..full of so much sorrow and despair but also so emotionally beautiful and intense...don't know whether to beg for you to hold on with the usual reverb "all will get better" or join the masses with soulful applauds..yes very good poem..

The beginning of this drew me in amazingly. You did a masterful job with
description and I felt that I was in that position you described. The ending
wasn't quite as good as the beginning, but I still enjoyed the poem.
Awesome job, some of the ideas in it were expressed very freshly if
that can be said about such dark thoughts.

Kudos,
~Kara
