Dispossessed

Because whispering ghosts were a terror
Worse than beatings I got from the thieves
Who hijacked my soul for their joyrides,
I came crawling to you for relief.
You drew a fine circle around me
And called me by a new name
Then offered to give me protection
And said you could free me from shame
Fearful and grateful, I promised,
And prayed as you said I must pray
And faithfully swallowed the magic
You said could keep demons at bay.

I paid you up front but did not know
The true price would be slow to come
My dreams are as clay in the desert
My words die as dust on my tongue
No longing dwells now in my spirit
The fear has all drained from my bones
There’s no hurry, no worry nor anger
I don’t care, and don’t care that I don’t
Of course the ghosts do not torment me
As you promised, the demons have left
Having no soul that’s worth stealing
I've stolen the joy from their theft.

Bloody hell this is fantastic! Absolutely fantastic! Damn but you write well. Shaking my head in awe, this is simply sublime! Structure, content and finale, all *perfect*.

Bloody hell, El

Moo xxx

Smile I seem to be chasing around the boards today behind people who are stealing the comments I want to make! Like Moonie before me, I'm in awe, total awe at how you take mere words and fashion them into a work of art like this. God, I love this, bellissiomo girlfriend.

Paradox in paradise, luv. It's so much more difficult without the suffering. So thank you, and thank you, thank you. Only you know.

This is very deep Ae. To me it is a declaration of freedom while walking through an unfamiliar, emotional territory...not barren and yet forcing attention to the details of new surroundings. I really feel in my own interpreation of this poem, that it is the feeling of deep growth, felt within the core of the soul. Hugs

Dance~
