~ Dark Angel Tears

I bled out through dark ashes

in attempts to heal stardust

You were floating on fluttered

     air of sea foamed ripples

My breath was stifled infinitely,

    intrinsic absence in your rhapsody

Drowning in abysmal insanity

 these depths of pensive poetry

    sworn  flourish of successful flight

Our blood mingled upon dismal wings

   henceforth glimpsing timelessness

        reverie

 of envisioned dark angel tears

This is one of your most imaginative and melodic pieces Mrs.R...you've said you're not into myths yet this one has a mythological quality to it...don't lose faith in poetry, even the pensive kind, to keep you afloat amid the insanity...life is littered with letdowns but poetry is not among them :) xo

[Frieda P]

Afloat amid the insanity, how aptly put Steve, thanks so much my friend. :-) xo

[kublakhan27]

Always a pleasure Frieda :) xo

[Frieda P]

You must be rubbing off on me if this has a mythological feel :-) x

[kublakhan27]

Haha you tell me Mrs.R ;)

Oooooooh, my favourite artist, Ｄａｘ Ｊｏｈｎｓｏｎ ~~ You know I ｌｏｖｅ him, tons.

What is with all these haunted writes today, Mama F ~~ Am I missing something? This was amazing, your play on words was ｏｕｔｓｔａｎｄｉｎｇ. This was so sad and bitter-sweet.

"Drowning in abysmal insanity
these depths of pensive poetry
sworn flourish of successful flight"

~~ Such a powerful stanza, my favourite out of them all. Simply divine and mind blowing. The way you wrote this stanza just made such an impact.... I have to look up some words - like I always do with you, haha.

The song added to the emotion and got me close to tears.

ｆｌｉｐ ｆｌｏｐｓ ａｎｄ ａｌｌ ｔｈａｔ ｊａｚｚ! ♥

Wow, can I give a holy cats to a review, thanks so much noodlebumble!

[Dhaye]

A Dark Angel also cries...

A nostalgic piece but beautifully written. You always have a great wordplay, Frieda. The music is so moving, too. So apt for this beautiful piece.

Staggering...well-penned!

[Frieda P]

Love that word 'staggering' thanks for such a gracious review Dhaye! :-)

[Dhaye]

I'm a lover of words, Frieda...and of notes. You have made a perfect combination here.
And you are so much welcome.

[Frieda P]

And you dear have made my day. :-)

[Lydia Shutter]

Dark done as it should be. A bluesy jazzy sort of poem.
"You were floating on fluttered air of sea foamed ripples" Great alliteration in this line! Poignant and pretty, Frieda. Lydi**

[Frieda P]

Oh jazzy, you know I like that!...glad you enjoyed Lydi.

[Lydia Shutter]

Yes! Didn't even realize it till you mentioned it! :)

[Frieda P]

Haha jazzed :-)

[Travis Gibson (poetic h..]

I agree with, Rose... dark, but it is beautiful. You and that pen should teach a class.

[Frieda P]

Oh too dark, I'd have to pass out tissues whilst at it, thanks Travis.

[Travis Gibson (poetic heroics)]

Just make them bring their own tissues. haha

[SyberRose]

Beautifully dark Frieda...made me think of becoming blood sisters with my best friend when ten years old...sitting on her porch and pricking our fingers and pressing them together and still friends today.

[Frieda P]

Glad it brought you to that memory Rose, thanks so much.

[Pryde Foltz]

Has the feel of a nightmare of love--if that makes any sense. Powerful write, Frieda.

[Frieda P]

It makes perfect sense to me....thanks Pryde.

[Dr. Wood ?]

so sad....yet haunting......You always come up trumps your majesty

[Frieda P]

You can get up now Sir Wood....

[ANTO]

And you want rumours to NOT start - with comments like this ...lol
;P

[Frieda P]

Haha it's a knighting joke with doc, be still you ;-)

[Dr. Wood ?]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...er...What was that?
