a new layer of paint

tick tock goes the clock

in the silence of the room

don't you worry i'll be done painting soon

milky white eyes

now see my disguise

as i toss the paint across the sill

my inane laughter they've had their fill

before the dawn

they know i'll be gone

new red walls displayed

the only proof that i have played

milky white eyes see my mind has now frayed

But clear eyes see the queen who you truly are :) i love reading your old poems and seeing how far God has brought you :)

[marie]

yes they do my knight:) God has brought me farther than i imagined and he continues to do so using you and oh so many others to push me forward into the person i can and will be:)

[Sir Joseph]

And i cant wait to see that person:) traveling with you:)

[marie]

shades of "The Shining" in this...

creepy good...with that hint of one losing his or her mind...the crazy laughter, the losing of self...with just a bit of proof we were ever here at all.

thanks for the review i really appreciate it:) hoped the poem tugged at at least some of your emotions :) in case you didn't notice i was going for fear, lol but thats obvious :)

The Shining was one of the scariest books Stephen King wrote.....

still shiver when thinking about reading it.
