Cauda Devorans

Tail devourer.........

As Ourobos dines, 

I dine, 

I devour, 

I consume fears and doubts, 

I swallow lonliness and depressions kiss, 

all within, 

I rage at self proclaimed prophecies of doom. 

There is no light on this starless night, 

Selene smiles her crimson smile, 

nothing stirs, 

yet I stir, 

roiling blood, 

racing heart, 

agitation of spirit, 

there is no rest, 

peace has left me, 

alone I sup this cup of isolation. 

I scream, 

I yell, 

I call, 

I speak, 

I whisper, 

there is no more I say, 

there is none to answer back. 

My tears have run dry, 

truely hope is a rare gem I can no longer afford. 

There will be no sunrise on the morrow, 

the storm clouds have gathered, 

the gloom slinks and slithers, 

shadows grow, 

darkness encompasses my hearts throne. 

Shall I go into the future empty, 

to walk through void and perpetual midnight, 

black flames guidance gives no comfort, 

I wait eating my portion, 

slowly poisoning my spirit.

Wavering emotions tend to cause doubt . .

Even though dark clouds gather, look for smiles lingering in the sunshine.
Your heart will lift.

You will be okay.

Your thoughts caress gently around me.
Hugs to you, Dave.

Thank you Brandy. It's been a weird year.

Pain of any kind plaits emotions then.. pulls them hard. Seems that is what your words are saying, screaming. A tragedy in a once happy life. How very sad. More than.. words raw emotion start to finish.

[Dave W.]

I guess you see a clearer picture of what I was saying. I will take your advice, just every now and again a cloud covers the sun.

Of course it does.. there's no overnight cure. But perhaps at times,you'll notice more of the positives than those other ones. Think you?!

[Dave W.]

I think I am going to choose to believe you, weither I feel it or not, I am just making a concious descision to say "Emma is right, there will be more positives coming". None of us are an island, we all need eachother, thank you.
