The taste of Seconds

by EoB   Aug 10, 2006


Restless,
I lumber through
a desolate landscape,
bereft of colors, dark and cold.
Every bitter second tastes like poison,
and passes like a ghostly dream.
From shade to deeper shade
I must wander,
restless.

    Loneliness and despair. Truly a volatile combination. Very well written.

    I can really relate to this.Simply written but yet with an underlaying deepness of darkness and despair.Sometimes the restlessnes of the soul takes a long time to find the peace it desires and needs so.I hope you find it eventually.

    Oooh, very nice! The picture painted with your words is quite disturbing, makes me think of loner walking a darkened road. Lovely imagery.
    Take care and keep it up~Holly
