PammyFoo Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 AUTUMN The leaves sway Back and forth. Side to side Each grappling for a friend. Some comfort As the water pellets fall Killing and maiming the mind In an empty, barren field The leaves Do they make a sound? For there is no ear to listen. Witness Does the tree exist at all? Are the leaves imaginary Each a separate worry, thought, feeling? One by one, they fall Dancing as they find their partners In a slowly moving zig-zag. Weaving To the ground BOTTLE BAY Lost in time and space Miles seem so far and wide For my weary heart to travel Washed up and spat out by the tide On a lonely Dunkirk beach No sign of hope on the horizon. Nothing My search party located No word of joy or love did it bring Hopless figurine before the sinking sun There is nothing for me here. I am done DEPARTURE LOUNGE I can never forgive. This How i feel How i wish to die, because of you Try to stop breathing. Being Living You turn to me With an emotionless face. Hard and cold. I crumble. A ruin of a woman Falling apart. Before your stoney eyes. Dying. I try to pull you back. Love you But you simply look and me and say: "Goodbye" DAISY Flickers of fairy dust flutter Then land on her face. So pale Golden, glittery goodness Land on her arms. Thin and frail A smile slowly stretches Soft laughter trickles from her lips Light glows from her angelic face Slowly starting to dance. Sway her hips Quickly, she gathers her golden grains They float freely into her box. Hidden away Secret stash of magical wonder Kept only for her. For her rainy, stormy day WAITING ROOM Tick, tock. Tick, tock Slow motion picture scene Heavy eyes and weighed down limbs Memoried flicker, of what has been Tick, tock. Tick, tock Another minute, another check Lights fade and sound is no more No mercy mission can save this wreck Tick, tock. Tick, tock Statue of stone in the coming dawn Others return to the land of the living Lights put out and the curtain is drawn UNKNOWN They never really knew her They never really cared All she wanted was a friend Alone, she was so scared But they never looked her way Did not hear her cries To them, when she was gone It seemed such a big surprise Since they never really knew her When it came to mourning day They all merged into black rows But none had words to say SHE WAS GONE She awoke that morning To the sound of thunderous rain The tiny bullets of water Reminded her of all the pain Numb, she rose to her feet Stumbled into a world of blackness Where she raised her weapon A tiny gleam in a vast sea of darkness Before the rainbow could set While the healing sun shone Her life had been drained And she was gone FALLING PETALS The delicate touch of the falling petal awoke me Reminded me of a summer so distant When we would walk Passed the rustling stream Along the path, where the rose petals fall The days, long gone, tap at my thoughts When i smell the delightfulness Of the coming summer When i shall relive those moments Held in time by memory And i shall always think of you As the river rustles As i stroll along those paths Where the rose petals fall SOLITUDE Floating along in my battered vessel Down a river which passes every port Waves rise and sun hides behind grey The fleeting sights of joy lived short Further down, the cries of others so faint Their directions all differing to my own Isolation, in this vast sea of black My journey is planned and my route sewn Link to comment
