Alchemy Of Ruins
By DescendingDown
Against the whisperings of a slanted horizon
on the other side reason
love plays here
He stares at me through hungry orphan eyes
in a thirst for (com)passion
& erases the lines of where I thought
I existed
I painted him somewhere in between my dreams
& that black inked night when my pens ran dry
neath the scattered
remnants of fallen stars
I am a tattered paper doll
folding
under his finger tips
in silent prayer
that he'll take his time
in breaking my heart

I have been reading your poems and I feel there is a good depth to your writings. It appears you are willing to give of yourself and there is also a warmth to what you write, I like what you write. don't forget it's alright to be a little selfish sometimes.
