Final Blessing For reasons purposely unknown, thinking is harder than dying tonight. Wishful thoughts carried on through darkness are embellished when our lips touch; my only release. It's staggering, the thoughts of your solitude; alone in the dark, nothing but the constant buzzing, frequent beating and eternal pain [without another] to keep you knowing you're still alive, but not ceasing the desire to perish Is this thought nearly enough to keep that heart of yours living, loving, beating? These constant, harsh reminders when your thoughts of sleep are close, but the reality is so much further? Where is she? Where has she gone... But the next night, when you're alone feeling that thinking is harder than dying, know I'm there. Feel me, the ghost trapped inside your soul. I'll never leave you, I'll never hurt you [purposely] and even though, my presence may be solid at times-- the weight in your heart--once held and embraced, my love will no longer possess that fragrance of sorrow. Join me in solitude, be my angel, as I am your ghost. And once our lips finally retreat to that embellishment once more, our hearts will no longer grasp that dreadful burden, but will be in our hands as we chose to share them with eachother. |
This is really well written I like how you have taken a relationship and gave it real new vivid life simply by writing about in your own style I enjoyed this Very Strong II especially liked the referrence of Ghost as in Holy Ghost and Angel to bring some much needed light to the Reader very creative God Bless Ron Please if you get a chance Please take a look at some of my writes and let me know what you think Thank You Ron | Posted on 2006-08-09 00:00:00 | by Ronswords | [ Reply to This ] | Finally a poem with a little substance that is worth taking the time to say something about... | First I like the fact that this started out as a journal entry and that you took the time and effort to make it into a poem. It still reads a little like "journal prose," but at least its great start. You could try to re-work some of the wording, word order, line breaks, etc, in order to make this read more like a poem... I really don't have specifics for you, and if I did I wouldn't tell you anyways, as i feel it is far more important for the poet to edit and revise, or he/she will learn nothing of the process... When I first saw that you labeled this a Romantic Poem, I was put off a bit... till i read it... Yes I can see the romance in it, and while I hate most love/romance poems (though I have written a few myself) I have to say that this poem doesn't fall into that ultra-cliché love/romance genre... It has genuine emotion and none of that "Romeo, Romeo, Where art tho Romeo" crap. Anyways, keep working on this Journal Entry turned poem and it will keep getting better... Good Luck PEACE and LOVE, gregory | Posted on 2006-08-02 00:00:00 | by geherald | [ Reply to This ] | Indeed. It is a very beautiful love...song? Poem. Well written. This was journal entry? How odd :| | I can only imagine what you were gonna put up in your journal... xD keep writting! -- Jason Clement | Posted on 2006-08-02 00:00:00 | by Jason_Clement | [ Reply to This ] | You've put alot of sentiment into this peice.. something rare I don't read too often. Your prose entry in your journal reads more letter-like in it's form.. which allows it to come togather more naturally - in my opinion. | Nonetheless, you portray a deep sence of passion and concern for this being/person, who may not know needs you at first until that 'touch' or 'embrace'. And I like how you take more of a subdued persona - shadowy & ghostlike but not somber or sullen as the entity you possess. Nice work.

I only have a couple suggestions. I would try to take out as many 'you's' and 'yours' as I could. It will flow a bit better, be less repetitive, and more open for others to fall into. Also, the last line you wrote "eachother". I wonder if it was on purpose and if it was, it's a cool concept, but it should be a concept introduced somewhere earlier in the piece so it doesn't come across as a misspell. Very nicely done. There is a serious lack of real emotion on this site right now, so this was a breath... Take Care!
