R.I.P.Here lies:
Lost Dignity;
Buried at the expense of
those brave few who found something
better.
CinquainYou are
nothing more than
eyes in a cold mirror;
a hollow reflection of who
you were.
LilyPetals draped in summertime,
in inviolate violet.
Pristine lily, life divine
petals draped in summertime;
will your bell still softly shine
when the mold'ring meadow's quiet?
Petals draped in summertime,
in inviolate violet.
The Forest Told the SkyThe storm came in, and through the tow'ring trees
He saw a sky he'd never see again
The shaken saplings trembled in the breeze
The storm came in.

The air above the dampened earth grew thin
Panic trailed his spine from tremb'ling knees
Leaf lined curtains danced upon the wind

His bare feet ran as fast as they could flee
The forest told the sky of where he'd been
The shaken saplings trembled in the breeze
The storm came in.
Those Eyes So BlueHe walks stone streets, becoming his disguise,
skin of spiderwebs beneath his eyes;
those eyes so blue, Sinatra's can't compare;
those eyes so blue, they slice through thick gray air.

He walks stone streets, becoming his disguise;
shadows of cement trail close behind.
His story isn't one they've never known,
but so familiar, it would hurt to hear it told.

He walks stone streets, blue eyes laden with sin,
who share their secrets only with the wind.
Those eyes so blue, would never dare to speak;
those eyes so blue, saw murder on these streets.

Skin of spiderwebs beneath his eyes,
he walks stone streets, becoming his disguise.
StormWayward waters, one with sun,
dance in daylight's cloudless calm;
until letters encased in raindrops
penetrate like windblown bombs.

No thoughts of solace, dreams of hope
shall assuage this hurricane.
Abrasive seas, uprooted trees
see desperate words form in the rain.

And when the raging waves subside,
the only remnants of the storm
are sea-foam sprinkled sentences
who find each other washed ashore.

Orange sulfur butterfly in my backyard. Isn't he so delightfully yellow? :meow:

Not entirely pleased with this piece... I don't know why, but I was having serious editing indecision today, I couldn't for the life of me decide if I like the colors in this or not. :hmm:
And now that I look at it I feel like the composition could've been better too...

So anywho, all constructive criticism is greatly appreciated! :dummy:
