self-burial
May 13, 2008
hope is my oil
against the reality.
soothes my soul
whenever i am in distraught.
dreaming wide awake
is my escape to the world,
playing it fast forward
leaning as it’s pace
slowly turns…
taking away one block
will surely weaken a spot.
without much calculation
nor thoughts, i can
safely rest,pretending
one foundation maybe gone
without crumbling every wall.
tattooed forever
marked since birth.
i maybe be able to escape
but who am i to deny,
this catastrophe i am heading
is solely by my own desire.
faith i held too long,
without acting one out,
eerily turns into a willow,
swaying without a sound.
i would never have the guts
to end all these pain.
will ever bother to try
to ever speak on stopping
this raging rain?

Wow 3 in a day. Impressive.
Another brilliant piece, I would say. Love the use of metaphor. Starts off kind a low but as it continues, it gets better.
This is the best stanza for me:
tattooed forever
marked since birth.
i maybe be able to escape
but who am i to deny,
this catastrophe i am heading
is solely by my own desire.
Brilliant, just brilliant. Keep writing good piece Princess.
Love u so much :-*
