    Place of Slumber

    my blood shivers, quivers
    along these veins
    under my skin, it pains
    what should've been.
    a thousand halls i wander
    defeated, and into slumber
    i retire, the esquire
    took my face.
    push aside the lid,
    my body dormant, the ages i
    hid, the beast is beckoned
    and the cage is rotted,
    those eyes reflected the ominent
    image,
    my legacy is my heritage,
    to know i am the only one,
    tired daily, shakingly i crawl back in,
    pulling the lid over the sarcophigus.

    Your poems are amazing and unique. Isnt it amazing how just a few lines of words can say so much? You chose the perfect words to explain things. I can feel the heaviness of your poems. Your work is really a treat to read. Thank you for sharing them. Um, would you read some of my poems? Nobody has been looking at them, and I really want to know what people think of them.....The knew ones are really the ones that are really worth reading.

    Absolutely mindblowing! I had to read it 3 times before i could shake the chills!

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
