Interesting write you have here. Very deep and very true are the words you speak that so few will hear. They will carry on and ignore. Thank you for sharing. A well written free verse.

Comment from HuntersMoon
Nicely done, oh Dark One :) There's a message here of the love of pain and the call of something just outside of reality - perhaps just outside of the plane we exist in.
I hope you'll drop by and read Atrum Vox Vocis (Dark Voices) - What drives a dark poet? I think we may have something in common :)
Excellent write, darkly presented!

Very good description of living in ones form.
Regardless of what we may be told or know, we play the game by our rules.
Our rules are simple all out, and we rise or fall in the end.

You did have the feel of someone on an edge or precipice of life. This poem has some good imagery in its thoughts and it read very smoothly. I enjoyed reading this excellent piece of poetic art... John

Comment from Maureen's Pen
This was fantastic on many levels. I almost felt the pain and emotional strain within the lines. There is a deep darker release that one sometimes begs for just to ease the pain.
I know when darkness comes it is staggering and overwhelming. The pain rips us apart bit by bit, leaving us at times begging and asking what is next.
I am terminal with cancer.....I understand deaths teeth and claws as it scrapes the soul.
Exceptional my friend, I would have given a 6, it is the hardest thing to do but releasing the pain this way also allows others to feel it on a superficial level.
But I know it is hard to do. Good for you, and hang in there.
Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Teresa Paul
I would have given six if I had them. I feel very funny about reviewing someone with this much talent. Wonderful flowing rhymes sailing gently to the end. No bumps on this ride as you glide to the end. I loved this poem and it has made me see, how much more work is needed for me. Terrific piece of art. Yours, Teresa.

Comment from Val Crisson
Well love it hate it, but appreciate that is a true emotion and life is not always and sweet rhyming. In fact this is a very true look at the pain of life, and difficulty of many to survive. Excellent

Comment from Janice65
A poem that I do not completely understand. I think there is a link here to something quite sinister or bad. It is written in a free verse style and with few, or no poetic devices. There is really nothing with it, but I wish I could what it's all about.

This is a very moving poem about death. This is a darker more painful look at the reality of death. Excellent poem. Thanks for sharing
