A Shell of a Poet

I am the shell of a POET, who's Soul now lives in Eternity He left me with his past: his sorrows and agonizing Memories I am ,but a dead man living in the shell of his conscience Striving to be the light on a Starless Moonless, stroll to loneliness Where the painful cries of silence, explode through-out my brain Where the blinding shadows, web the skies, and life is "Forever Midnight There is no Dawn, no Sunrise, no Sunsets, in the ebony sea of despair To be Continued; It took me 2 weeks to write this. it will take me a week to Write part 2. I will try to write 2-3 comments a week, unless Phillip is here. I wait at the Gate of Heaven to meet YOU. ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Liege...HG

Profound work here, I think we all strive to be the light on a starless and moonless sky to someone. To me you have always been a ray of hope, overfilled by resiliency. Best wishes to you and God Bless…

Daniel, this write is so very touching my friend! You have mastered the art of the depressing aura, the sadness of being at near death (of which I hope you aren't even close)! The power of your last statement, "Forever Midnight There is no Dawn, no Sunrise, no Sunsets, in the ebony sea of despair" wow such passion within that line! What an incredible poem that you have written! Great Work!!
