Will you stand beneath the bridge
where my toes dance with gravity,
pleading the laws of physics in vain
as I prepare you for my destiny.
Lift the face to misted heavens,
let the dark rain flow over me,
rivulets of pain traversing my skin
I bathe in bitter agony.
Breath of wind to tease the skin,
song of distant laughter to taunt.
Visions of gnashing teeth confuse,
emptiness envelops, converted to gaunt.
Half a thought to eternity, half step;
floating faces emboss the inner eye.
Recall singed embers fading,
fighting death to live alone to die.
Train whistle dancing in the wind,
whirled through tornado thoughts' might.
Winged eagles stretch beneath harvest moon,
envious not of my free falling flight.
No white angel wings glisten
to ease the broken soul's downfall.
No echo heralded pain to clouded memory
of past love beneath this sweet rainfall.
Nightmarish exhaustion punctuating desire
brings anguished soul to flight.
Face to face with harder stone than heart
I fell, beneath the shadowed moonlight.

Wow... I have read this numerous times and
I am still left in awe. The poem was just so
beautifully written and just captures your
natural talent which so few have. I just loved
how it flowed and just the terrible expression
of sadness that your words so eloquently
captured. The ending was exquisite and Kara
my dear as I told you before I don't think this
write could get any better.

Wow-the imagery is beautiful.
I love the last line:
I fell, beneath the shadowed moonlight.
Beautifully written and the rhyming flows very well.
Fantastic write!
