Date Posted: 14:57:36 11/05/07 Mon Reaching desperately toward the outstretched hand. Fingers barely missing flesh on flesh... Again. Moon beams filter softly beautifully deceiving through the curtain of sheerly hung clouds. Futile. If she could only reach into the abyss below. Could she but grasp those fragile fingers... Insight. Inches seperate her from the truth that lies below. She will believe that hand is reaching for her. A leap of childlike faith would shatter the surface. Realities reflection revealed at last. The hand she longs to reach... It was her own outstretched. Sometimes an inch is simply more than space. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 13:18:05 11/06/07 Tue My addition. Tell me whatcha think! Pale girl, don’t scream loudly so-it isn’t a deeper pit than love. The rocks not so sharp, not so lusty for your blood and tears as I, your jealous green lover. The crows not so starved for your flesh as I, the clouds not so eager to enfold and caress and steal away the breath from your fairy lips as I, your torturer, your lover, your devil, your captor, your saviour. Love, scream louder. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 19:55:57 11/06/07 Tue I just realised that I have an extra 4 syllable line in there. Ah, well. Imperfection is the soul of beauty. I'll let it stand. Maybe it'll be a new variation hereafter named for me? ;) [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 16:12:03 11/07/07 Wed Well, I think that your poem is just fine. It's filled with both passion and emotion. Poetry is LIFE! Life itself can be quite dark so that means there is room for Dark Poetry. Dark, Light, Evil, Benevolent, Inspirational, Angry, Loving, Seductive, you name it, and you will find countless poems covering it all. Thanks again for joining us. It's our policy to move these poems into our lobby once they are placed here. I will be doing that now. Welcome! thanks, andy [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 18:53:28 11/07/07 Wed Meeting finger whispers, she feels the kiss of ice lost where she lay in dark breathing whimsy Softly chasing ripples unseeing the edged silk that trace where the mist sought her touch, her mind To lie upon earthen, stretched to reach the unknown her words fall to her fingers stiff no more She aches knowing love lost returning to the wet where all is quiet and calm there she cries Hush now, the darkness hunts poised to wrap gray to white lain on the ledge of sanity’s whimsy.....

Date Posted: 14:22:37 11/08/07 Thu Pool of destiny. Unseen, In the moonlight, She reaches for herself, To keep herself safe from all time, She weeps, The mist, Shrouds her night time, As small tears fall so soft, Into the pool of destiny, Unheard, Ageless, Her reflection, Always reaches for her, Yet if their fingers ever touch, She’ll die, So she, Comes to the pool, Just to admire her past, Forever locked in timeless peace, She smiles. © Paul Osborne 2007.
