    Burn a candle, Just for flame

    lose your bitterness
    englishgirl with raven hair
    remember the peacekeeper you once were
    before i sank my claws in deep
    remember the softness in your stride
    your feminine Caplet
    those delicate hands
    how quiet your spirit was before
    destruction arrived from the chrystalline pines

    reflect within your tiny rivers
    build fires in your garden
    burn a candle, just for flame
    forget about amsterdam -
    we didn't love eachother then
    forget the violence
    forget Canada
    forget that i once breathed for you
    but remember who you are

    do not become obsessed
    with material things
    do not find comfort in a bottle
    do not make money your god
    do not have selfish sex
    do not mess with one's head -
    you know that gets messy

    i write this, only to tell you
    that i still write for you
    although it is unseen and unheard
    i still have a voice
    i am still a vision

    scientist
    you know
    i have collected the pretty shiny memory of you
    and pressed it into me
    like a morphine kiss

    intoxicating and deadly

    The past (memories) can indeed devour you. Intoxicating and if too much, deadly.

    Well that's what i got out of it anyway. In more ways than one.

    It was very touching. Seemed so 'sensitive' and...can't think of the word. Er...nope. It's gone. Can't remember.

    An emotional piece which seemed to leak out like tears...yet had such a poetic eloquence to it. Showing true your writing abilities. Intwining layers of irrationalaity, wisdom, raw love, logic etc (er, well kind of...me words aint coming to mind at the moment) Had a real yearning to it. Easily felt by even those who can't relate.

    I dig, man (I should wear flares saying that..oh wait, i am...or is that bootcut?!...er..sorry, bit off the point)..

    ...resp...

    Very nice!

    Wow you pulled this off in seemless fashion. Words melted together and your points were well made. I loved the classic use of grammer and style, very appealing to the senses. As 'V' has stated above the poetic eloquence is amazing. I can see a stern message in it, but so respectfully assembeled. Great job, I can not emphasize that enough...
