Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. (Edgar Allan Poe)

Words like violence

Break the silence

Come crashing in

Into my little world

Painful to me

Pierce right through me...

Vows are spoken

To be broken

Feelings are intense

Words are trivial

Pleasures remain

So does the pain...

(Art by Chetzar)
