Revenge on all, for this is all you've done,
And you can tell the world you've always won. -
I fell in love with a dream, not you,
While stars burned brightly in my eyes one night. -
“Oh lady, spider, or other critter
did you not meet the baby-sitter?” -
empty bottles and identities
a rattling collection of previously loved names -
In the frozen wilderness, to be alone and lost
Mid-winter night to come across a tiny den of friendly folk. -
How ephemeral is the substance we construct friendship from that makes it so difficult to feel?by TheDarknessVisible 6 lines, on Apr 1 3:49 PM

When snows are gone at Spring's return
the sight eclipses all we've learnedby TheDarknessVisible 16 lines, on Feb 15 5:14 PM -
You leave me listless in the snow so I
should never dream of warmth again but stirby TheDarknessVisible 16 lines, on Feb 4 12:18 PM -
O what is fondness, when there is no one
to warm this hand except by freakish lustby TheDarknessVisible 15 lines, on Feb 4 12:16 PM -
I hear the tones, but do not know who plays them, Resounding through the walls I call my home.
-
I leave my own reflection quivering.
-
I guess that this is where I want to be --
my lips, my hands, my face and weathered skin: -
Post-modernism has slipped her enervating noose over us, and silently six billion souls gasp, horrified but unaware. And none act. It is to
-
How shall I know the depth of my desire,
before I pass the point of no return, -
Is it kindness then to show
why it has been I've never seen -
Words coalesce in amber and depart / a woeful heart, like driftwood tossed ashore; / from glittering dawn's reflection storm clouds start /
-
One Touch caused me to finally understand / how currents stream across the wing, / why oceans burn upon the Sun-drenched sand, / the tremor
-
You looked into my eyes and I saw stars
exploding in the sky, beyond the sun. -
I yearned for this moment of existence, / and know what happens next; / I felt it there already: / falling... into void.. the distant darkness... / but I know so well that I must try / and though the safety net liesby TheDarknessVisible 13 lines, on May 11 5:02 PM 2007. In Spiritual

Does everything we've held mean nothing to us?
Did stars we touch together fall for naught? -

To see a world I've never seen,
To hear the words I cannot say, -
Descend silently into the isolation:
the door slams shut with the shattering thunder of sleigh bells...by TheDarknessVisible 14 lines, 1 comment, on Dec 24 3:51 PM 2006 -

haunted now but still familiar hills
bend wide and menacing -
I smile to hide my pain...
make up to hide my scars... -
you look like mother's tears
her sons returning -
What was one hour, but seemed an hour alive?
An hour given over -- O too brief! -
The shadows share a different shade tonight:
a different dark caressed by different eyes, -
So dear by heaven -- can't be held,
nor touched from here, nor filled again; -
To sip upon these softly stolen breaths
of dust, as ever mankind's greatest part; -
I spent the spring in curious complexion;
before the sun's last day, each dawn a year -- -
I could mistake the trees for happiness,
that have not fallen yet; their soaring leaves
