Here, Alone
Ignite, flames surround
So beautiful, the light
Exquisite, yet fierce
Shaded the dream
It was just you and me
The storm in passing
Parading around
Remember this moment
And don't make a sound
Tempted from pain
Let this fire build up
Burn down the empire
Hear the birds sing
Message in a bottle
As beauty fades
Eternity has served
As time is erased
Painting the canvas
With gentle strokes
Illuminating the sky
Signing the declaration
Wavering my soul
So talented the child
So tortured the heart
Divided by space
Showing brittle bones
Forever I'll stand,
Here..
Alone
So beautiful, the light
Exquisite, yet fierce
Shaded the dream
It was just you and me
The storm in passing
Parading around
Remember this moment
And don't make a sound
Tempted from pain
Let this fire build up
Burn down the empire
Hear the birds sing
Message in a bottle
As beauty fades
Eternity has served
As time is erased
Painting the canvas
With gentle strokes
Illuminating the sky
Signing the declaration
Wavering my soul
So talented the child
So tortured the heart
Divided by space
Showing brittle bones
Forever I'll stand,
Here..

Powerful writing, Angela! This is a very fiery poem, filled with much vivid imagery and symbolism. It is the sort of poetry that suggests more than is evident and conjures up images both realistic and surreal in the mind of the reader. It blurs many lines, and even seems to transcend them at the same time! There is a certain darkness throughout, but there is light as well, each counterpoint to the other. Brilliant work! I found it a fascinating and breathtaking read. Keep up the great writing! Poems such as this show your poetic gift exceedingly well.

This speaks of a new day like the proverbial Phoenix rising from the ashes. Lovely piece.
