I stare rejection in the face
before I go to bed
each night
It smiles as if it knows
everything I'm yet to feel
burns into the carcass it betrays
a shadow play.
Single droplets dissipate
tormented
I look beyond,
try to see
understand that this is it
this is me
I can't.
I close my eyes and turn
catching for a moment
herself move
she reaches out
I walk away.

A journey into the depths of my heart, mind and soul. "From my heart a single tear hangs low..." {Pink Raven}
12/08/2008
one corner
Tears as trinkets
unlike diamonds
shiver with pain
one corner of the room
displayed yet
shadowed by the hand that caressed another.
The void of sanity enveloped
with each blow
seared
torched by words of sorrow
one corner of the mind
hidden yet
reflected in the shallow cry of silence.
I saw myself
slumped
engorged
piety drowned
one corner of the box
lit for a moment
before the darkness took me.
