DarkPoetry -|- Dancing_Monkey -|- Fruitless.

Fruitless.

Freely she entered my free flow fantasy
Sleeping on the shores of my symbol, to be washed away
By the tide of time
Honesty crush; Bending every inner hope
Lupine divinity unmasks the harlequin
One day flawless passed before me, the scent of dawn
Static insomnia, the scar to seal.

The length of my disillusion
Into the mist majestic eyes.

From damnation; delicate decadence
Seduction stands before you, the drumstick breach
Ripples banned, prefect submit
Transcript, confusing gaze
The seal of Anubis

your words are like diving into a pool, closing your eyes underwater, and letting your body go limp as you slowly coast out and towards the surface.

On Saturday June 26th, 2004, Nadir (618) writes:

Ow pretty strong words. I am happy for you, yet you have a way of making it sounds as a fear, instead of beauty. Actualy both in one, making it as honest in fear and in love. But still totaly rock like firm as the static it is.

A weak mind would see it doubt where a mature would see it total dedication. Something that I think is maybe the most obvius yet hardest thing to get to know about you. Very cool. Tiger
