lost am I on a raging sea
drowning in a painful fury
of ruined dreams and collapsing me
eyes are on flames, heart is frozen
as hands was molded in metal sheets
capped with eons of crusade
until when the fire shall live?
only my own self to extinguish
when forgiveness dwells in me
3rd of February,2010
Nice theme... of the widening chasm betwween our dreams and reality. We build our life with bricks of compromise and mortar of sympathy. I wish all your dreams to come true.
What dwells in us makes us strong and what comes out will make us weak.
Catrina in back again! It good to see you are starting off where you left.. good job
very much poignant...something more than mere forgiveness seems to be dwelling in there...10
ntil when the fire shall live? only my own self to extinguish when forgiveness dwells in me... that is how you evaluate the life with different angle. life is same but with variation in feelings..it was never a different.. full of anger, deception. happiness, joy and with all colors.....10
forgiveness dwells in us, and a divine character kind to others and ourselves....nice poem

Cat, you always write in a touchy way that whenever I read your poem, I feel it's my idea. Have you theft all of my ideas that I became silent like an old tree besides a river?
Extremely deep in sorrow saved by forgiveness exellent work Catrina A strong character employed++++10 regards
