Poet Introduction

Through a sickly life of pain and torment came a love that weighed it all away from my bones and now that love is gone the truth is that I will always love Thomas but now must carry what he was with me. I am my own salvation.

Favorite Poets/Writers

About Me

"Behind stained glass ( Avena Sativa )"

I live in a leech jar, rusted and rotten,
encaved in darkness from the victorian basement.
The only device I may have is that of sound,
the curved and the beautiful body of my electric violin.
Oh how I love when it balances it's weight on my shoulder,
the bow never missing a note, never slipping out of my hand.
Sometimes I find myself dancing to the tune,
my hands can't even seem to follow along yet they do.
The disturbed mind I find so warm you find so cold,
humming and sweating alone side the dark notes I play.

The only salvation left for me is my violin.

~Greetings, you may think that my name is really Avena Sativa when in truth it's not, my name is Amelia Franko though please call me Emma. Avena Sativa means Oat; which in floriography (which I am fluent in) means 'music'. Hopefully by reading the poem above you will understand why I did that. Thank you for veiwing my profile.
