Fire Fly's Past (Revised)

By shadows of saturn

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Our Half remembered song of sad teardrops never aging is clenched in the jaws of our past we were a free dolphin basking in a dreamless haze- but the dolphin has been caught in a suffocating net as darkening shrouds drown our memories are love was two ghosts praying remembering my siren cries echoing the cloud's somber song Somewhere  light swirled black our days turned dark- the loveless Moon bright but Dim sour rain etched in moonlight the fog ends, swollowed by the wind all that is left is our mind's eye burning and the firefly burned by the acid rainThis one is also a revision. the older version was Past, and I think I improved it:) Written December 31st, 2001 © on Dec 31 2001 09:39 AM PST   0 • 8
