[hometext] => Weird poem, and definetly needs some fine-tuning, but whatever here it is.
[bodytext] => The Journey of the Ash My fine filtered friend My only solace in the aftermath of unrequited love I’ve found someone to love; that I always find all too easily Finding someone to love me is much harder Maybe too hard for a **** up like me I take a deep drag and try to burn it away I tap my friend nervously An ash escapes and begins to float around The journey of the ash begins to fascinate me It refuses to land It finds itself continually caught in the wind Every time I think its journey is over it finds some invisible upwind and continues It moves behind me and I turn eagerly to see where it plans to fly next There is something beautiful in it that I don’t understand I can’t understand what it’s so powerful to me as a tear escapes my eye It refuses to die Its journey continues for a few minutes more, never without my eye on it As the ash finally relents and falls to the floor I turn away I’d rather not see its end I take another drag and watch a new ash begin its journey My cigarette soon dies and I am left The journey of the ash brought me brief solace, but reality does not hide for long My thoughts go back, as they always to do to her I remember how much I love you and how you will never love me I remember all the foolish, lovesick things I’ve said and how they don’t matter to you I remember that I’ve been here before I remember this feeling My heart sinks and I close my eyes I light up another cigarette [comments] => 3 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Trauma [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

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. ©
