fallen
I'm a shadow
of myself
glowering at the sun
for reflecting my image
i want to fade into the dark
where i can no longer be seen
nor heard
not a word
spilled from my tainted lips
that leave their mark
upon your soul
if i could but rise
from the wraith ranks
far above into the ether
capture some magic
that sparks
instead of flickering & fading
i would streak
across the night sky
light a path
for you to follow
but i stumble
& fall away into the pain
like a fallen star
i flash & burn out

Crim... this is a beautiful and wonderful piece. I love it. The imagery of the sun and fallen star are quite amazing. Good piece. I connect with it on some level. May you hold strong.

it flashes then fades, Crim:
the minutes of a sunset, spectacle of a fiery comet
or a star falling -
beauty is brief...

You've not burned out, my beautiful Angel. You're just resting, catching your breath. 'Rise from the wraith ranks..." so perfectly worded. I often feel that's what we are some days, shadows of who we are, who we could be, who we were; just remnants. So much love, my lady...

Oh Brenda, I believe that we are all shadows of ourselves and spend our whole lifetime trying to become a whole, vibrant person. This is a poem worthy of its name.

Matter cannot be created or destroyed. Only changes forms. You are not burning out but simply in transition to a new state.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by the speed of light squared then you energy.
Yes that was a science joke.
I will show myself out now.
P.S. Excellent write.

your ink is so beautiful in its tragedy. It staggers the mind and leaves you wanting more. Well done, Lady Crim.
