My journey through this tunnel,

Now slowly approaches the end.

The longest swords of light, 

And the darkest wisps fight,

To their territory defend .

 

Irony, life

Current Music: Simon & Garphunkel - The Sound of Silence

  1. Quite a long time it's been. Good to see you. :)

    So true. Now, I like the message you're trying to put across but doesn't the poem seem a little disjointed in the first reading? A second read and it comes together better this time but what is the last line about? :|


  2. Visit wool

    nice to see you remember me Aran, atleast you sound you do. what can i say, writer's block..or jsut plain old procratination.
    Yeah i felt there was something haphazard about the sequencing of the lines too.
    to answer your last question, The title of the poem refers to the addressee.
    There is nothing special abt the last line i didnt mean to highlight it like that ..its the result of a bug in the software here.
    so what didya say was so true?


  3. Yes I remember you. There are not many blogs I like on this site nowadays. Yours stands out. :)

    Ahh ok, I get the last line now that I read it without the emphasis!

    The 'so true' was for the substance of the poem. It's hard leaving the darkness behind. Feeding on it is so easy.


  4. Excellent! Mr. Holmes. How did you figure that out.
    So atleast its proven my poems do mean something and i'm not just dishing out sludge :).
    Ah your much too kind, sire. *blush*
    So where's your blog? I'd like to see some print from the greatest mind of our times, too.


  5. Hmmm... where do I start! Let's see, first, I'm not a 'sire'. I'm Ms. Watson instead of Mr. Holmes. You can call me Watsie. :D (Coincidentally, even I thought you were a guy first).

    And sludge?! Definitely not!

    My blog... well, it inhabited this very corner of the web world May to December last year. Now it is no more. Alas!

    Coming to the last part of your comment, I am not exactly a great mind, leave alone the greatest. I just enjoy the written word. The proof of this was my late blog, which was more funny than thought-provoking. I really miss that place...! Sigh.
