    Default This Poem, Awarded Poem Of The Week at my home poetry sire

    Received an email relaying to me that my new poem was awarded poem of the week at my home poetry site.
    This after my having decided to take an (indefinite) break from my home poetry site.--Tyr

    From Desolate Waves, Of A True Love's Death


    As poet I cry out, nobody hears
    yes, deep ingrained apathy I fear
    for no other sad darkness so repels
    as does indifference born from Hell.

    From desolate waves, of spitting grey mists
    arrives those terrors from misery's lists
    fiery flames set to burn a weeping soul
    into heartache abyss, death's tragic toll!

    As poet I cry out, so few may see
    majesty in even a long dead tree
    or beauty in finely woven dark verse
    born from a pure truth one did not rehearse.

    From desolate waves, of a true love's death
    comes grief that illuminates gasping breath
    followed by epic dark, its coldest chills
    knowing never again, comes love's sweet thrills.

    I love this line ...

    "majesty in even a long dead tree"

    Congrats, kiddo!
    If the freedom of speech is taken away
    then dumb and silent we may be led,
    like sheep to the slaughter.
