The Prophecy

by dante   May 10, 2008


Was it true, that unbearable agony of a half truth
Whispered in a dreaming?
Is my future layed out far and for all to see?
Have I any control or is casualty my only master?
Guiding my pathetic flicker of life,
A delicate flame dancing across the nexus of life,
I dream of you, of a death and a life,
Of me following your shallow footprints
Dragged along the beach and into the waters of my eternal tomb,
A dream, a nightmare? No, a prophecy of our interwined consciousness,
Never to be torn asunder, a prophecy of my neverending love for you,
My angel, my blessing, and my curse...

    No need for comma there, dear. :]

    Is my future layed out far and for all to see?

    What do you mean "far"? Like... far away.
    As in it's unattainable?

    Have I any control or is casualty my only master?

    Comma after control.

    A delicate flame dancing across the nexus of life,

    You shouldn't use life again.
    It's repetative.

    There were a lot of questions at the beginning.
    That's good, I guess, that gets the readers minds rolling.
    But too much can just get overwhelming.

    Also, my favourite lines would have to be

    "I dream of you, of a death and a life,
    Of me following your shallow footprints
    Dragged along the beach and into the waters of my eternal tomb,"

    to me, these lines stood out the most in the poem, with the mere description and the depth in the way you penned these lines
