wow, i absolutly loved this. This is a beautifully dark piece of writing, i love that you used the pendulumas a choice of symbolism, and i espcially liked the lines,
"Reach for time and set it back.
Relive that place you must retract.
Coming forth to that space between.
That place which held so much unseen.
This is the place of sorrow and happiness both.
Staying here devoted by oath."
i love the comments on time and place. i also admired the last two lines, lovely. great job

This part i loved:

"Kill the tear drops, that spattered down.
And swallow the darkness of depression ground. "

to kill a tear drop! that was so strong i loved it1!!!
