PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

A fool such as I

Building castles in the sand

A ship of love

With hollow hull

A jump from the edge

Of the ledge

Dying, trying,

To defy...loves gravity





Still waters run deep

Often true fades to blue

Yet darkness of a loosing pit

Seems to gravitate

Challenging

The very essence

Of the soul

Life itself

Remains in question

While purple eyes

Found to be made of jade





And breathe

Shall go on

Until someday

Turning to finality

Hearing a final gasp

Signifying...the end
