i saw the depths of a man
fall deep into despair
i saw eyes of a child
melt under a fathers lie
i saw a boy slash his wrist
on a sunday mornings
i asked him why
praying to god he told me
with a sigh i confined myself
to a stone room
there is no cold warmth
in this place just my shadows
among many faces
counting sheep quietly falling
fast asleep life wrapped
up in some small gift box
diamond ring tarnished dreams
i saw a dog chasing a cat
pack of wolves on the hunt
maybe its time to bleed myself
tonight in the stoneblue waters
of you
tonight ill drown myself
in the stoneblue waters
of you
cant say i love you
cant say i love you anymore
i saw a woman cry this morning
wanted to comfort her
give her my flesh change my masque
all i want to do
is drown in the stoneblue waters
of you

I can't believe I haven't read this one. Why haven't you written in so long? (Well, I'm one to talk) This is so sad and beautiful. While reading it I almost wanted to cry. *sigh* I never realize how much I miss your words until I read them again.
I miss you thiiiiiiis much

complex, intricate, relatable, sublte, flowing, simple, thought provoking
i can feel myself slip into the midset as i read it... (and an original comment coming up) definitly a good write -
OOo, yay! A second poem, and a complex and interesting one at that. I really enjoyed this, can't really say what it was...there's a detached knowing I felt while reading it, something personal. You span many different lives and people with this, and it all felt so sad...I like that.
Nice write definately. as always thank you for your support, take care -mary/nevaeh

There is so much we see around us and within us all..parts of ourselves wish so much to reach out and touch the answers that could be there laying dormant and unseen.Sadness and pain seem to cover and the desire to wash it away and feel anything other than this can overwhelm one ...You have a talent that shows like a light inside your work...Truly exceptional ...Adieu for now ...~ Gypsy ~

Very goog!
It seems that something has happened in the past, and that affects your present. Fellings hidden under a big emotional confusion.
Or maybe I'm over analyzing this poem
It was anyway, very well written and very well expressed!
