rolling...entwined within.
Transcending into a swamped
sea of orange petals.
Unleashed memories...
Like the thickly settling
morning haze of self deception.
Bringing forth an aeon
of an angels punishment.
Removal of thought...
Caught between two worlds,
teetering on the brink of sanity.
A tightrope walk, faced with uncertainty,
balancing between the coma and the lies.
Author notes
This is my first attempt at an abstract poem. I don't know if this is what you are looking for or not. I know that it probably could have been longer but I did not want to ruin what I have.
It is also inspired by the Lacuna Coil album "Comalies"
for anyone who is in question of the spelling for aeon, I have a link that explains it....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeon

This is really cool. I like how you used the title of the songs in the poem. That's really awesome. I also like how you used comalies. It's very creative.

Great imagery here, really left be in a beautiful darkness that I could only endeavor. I like your choice of words too, they really flowed well and the line breaks added to suspense and apprehension that the reader is left feeling.
