Drawing Room

by Last Angel   Jun 21, 2006


Torn apart but drawn together
They lie upon the naked ground
Fallen close, still, a feather
Could barely make a softer sound

Figures of a man and woman
Never more than halfway old
Crumpled, broken, torn, embracing
A tender kiss, grey and deathly cold

As night falls the room becomes brighter
Fake light catches a shadowy creature
Twisting its limbs to a neater angle
Failing to escape his endless torture

The waste on the floor is mounting higher
Shreds of the creator's grand design
Scattered to the earth, as ashes and dust
There to wait until judgment time

The artist rises into depths of light
Finally satisfied, though out of sand
No more paper, no time to mend
But what about that right hand...

    I think you should stick to the whole "crative thing", because you're really good at it. you depicted an awesome image. and the poem was very well written
    good job

    Well, if you decide you like the whole "creative thing" or if you decide you don't, know either way that you are a gifted writer. Your imagery and symbolism is incredible and adds great depth to your poetry. You had a nice rhyme pattern that was concistant and not foced, plus you had a beautiful flow. I was flored by your diction (word choose) and how perfectly the words you picked represented you message. You have an amazing start to becoming an even better writer than you are now. (whichi is a good one.)
