Elusive...

Contributed by MisfitMe on Thursday, 7th December 2006 @ 03:23:47 AM in AEST
Topic: insomniac



She's never twice found~

the same as once seeming

Inspired & willful~

she smiles while screaming...


She confronts the obvious~

for what it appears

Though its meaning she allows~

to remain unclear...


One after the other~

she runs hot & cold

To herself keeping secret~

what's paid for when told...


Wanting what she wants~

with both eyes on the prize

Left blind to her own needs~

she's yet to realize...


Whether close or distant~

together or in turn

Within her always reigns~

the unknown for she yearns...


So she takes every path~

& arriving nowhere

'Til the sleep against fought~

must be winner declared...


And in having to succumb~

her frustrations by heightened

Knowing once more she'll awaken~

no further enlightened...


Unable to find answers~

outside of them dreaming

She's never twice found~

the same as once seeming...

Methinks your bold pen has arrived...Time to get published the moon is your friend you know and there are angels wings ready for flight.

I especially liked:

'...she smiles while screaming...

She confronts the obvious~

for what it appears

Though its meaning she allows~

to remain unclear...

One after the other~

she runs hot & cold..."

Sometimes you dont get the authors intention for a piece as well crafted lines can be very effective for whole other purposes filled with meaning for the reader...I was lost in the above and stopped there woolgathering wondering if you knew my ex as she could be alot like that...

Well Done

Peace
AJ
