Hi everyone - I wanted to post a poem of mine here and just see if people could give their reviews. People here tend to be a lot deeper and in tune with the 'other places' so I wondered if readers might get the drift of what I'm trying to convey - thanks!
For all my ways I found a way
to use the errors of yesterday
to find a flight to further the fight
against the edge of darkness and solitary night.
Where darkness revealed the ultimate sin
As one learns to feel, to love again.
My life is wrought with dangers unknown
I planted a horror where seeds are sown
to return and learn, for I will always yearn
for the fire that stings, destroys and burns.
Yet in me exists the water that flows,
In passion, it lives, it screams, it grows
into the most feared weapon of all my foes.
I may never be what I seek out to be
I may fail, forever on my knees
but I cried, I tried, failure I defied
living forever with the essence of pride.
Yet this voice that whispers holds no shame
Ignorance is no player in this game.
For all my ambition, the crux of my soul
As much as I strive, I'll always know
A mysterious beauty in each life foretold
It was love that forever made me whole.
For all my ways I found a way
