Peter Madden Poems

when your lost, When your alone,
and you can see nothing but the darkness,
when the shadowy fingers of night reach out,
to evelope you in their icy embrace,
...

We live in this world..
...

Like a ghost of smoke and fur
this child of luna's nocturnal silver light
wanders through the myst draped wild lands
a patient hunter watching unwary prey
...

Do you feel it?
as you walk slowly through the dark,
in this fallen neglected labyrinth of the mind,
where mold and filth fester upon crumbling walls,
...

I wander down the path....
my life the uncharted way before me...
each step i take anew...
is upon virgin terratory...
...

Heart of glass
shattered into a thousend pieces
reflecting the moonlight
...

In the dark i stare into the fire....
images of my past seen in flickering lights...
subtle shapes given form by imagination...
teasing glimpses of my hidden heart....
...

Falling...
falling into darkness...
flames surround me...consume me....
the pain that will never heal..
...

life...

its not about what we have done...
or what mistakes we have made..
the hurts we have given..
...

At my feet lie my dreams
twisted and torn mercilessly asunder
by cold unforgiving claws of realitys wrath
the once comforting illusions of reasurance
...
