Last Stand

From the soul emerged a light,
     Brought to the darkness of man.
Then came a hideous site,
    The compassionate heart took it's last stand.
Destroyed by hate,
   Over powered by blood,
The entity was offered as bait
     But hope was lost with the flood.

Auh - we know too well....still waiting for the book??? Would you mind if I compiled your poetry for my own references as in copy (not giving them out - nor using anything without your knowledge) Although I have posted your things a time or two on My Space. I simply want to keep them. I am a lexiphile - sounds dirty doesn't it??? LOL. I collect these things. Quotes, words, poems, lyrics, maybe a catchy thing, someone said walking by, (as I think we all do) Mountains of files. That are treasures to me. I would greatly love to add this to my treasure... You have a gift of treasure.

I enjoyed this piece, but I'd like to see a little more added on to it. I would hope that all hope is never completely lost.

This was a pretty cool poem. It left me wanting more. However, I'm a person that looks at a painting and wonders what happens in the next one. This is very somber and dark. Probably why I liked it.

Seeming to hold a dark undertone but with wonderful imagery and purely a joy to read. Very well written piece.


Great Job!!!!

Very nice, short, sweet and to the point. I love the message this poem transends, I don't know why but I have a fascination with dark poetry. As I said I love the work and I hope that you continue to write so that I may read it.

Another powerful poem that makes me feel as I read it. I love your poetry- it's really good.
Keep up the good work and I will keep reading
