Alone Within The Wood |
alone within the wood

Terrifying And Unknown |
fragile
mass -bearing
silence
a weight
a wait
a
film
peeled
away
reveals
a
face
silence

silky eyes |
silky eyes
wipe away
the
webs
if clarity
is what you've come for
never listening
eyes a-glistening
danger is only a footfall

Slave To The Sea |
Let's go frolicking
out in the sea,
you and me.
Let's dance with dolphins
in seas the hue
of perfect blue.
Let's paint the horizon
with our dream,

Let's swim with the tide
and gravity,... Posted by Shawn on Thu, 25 Jan 2007 07:41:00 PST |

You painted this Oasis
