~A Grip on the Darkness~
Alone… Always
Alone…
These Dark Purple Lights makes Not Fair Company…
Come in… The Thought is Warm
But the Means… Are Not
These Translucent Hopes… of Glimmering Light
But Memories of some Greater Thing… Some Normal Thing
The Winds of Time Cast a Ghastly Glow
On what you Hope Will Be… These Figments… These
…untouchable Integer Components of Unknowns
The Air is full of what isn’t Really There
And You are Grasping at what you only Hope is True…
But wait… You are not Breathing
Breathe… In New Hope
Breathe Out the Strength you know you Hold
Expand Beyond what you know, and think is Possible
Do it now…
…do not wait
You Are Home

WOW, where have you been hiding all this time?!! And setting these words to music which follows the words… can I swear on this blog? F*n Awesome! Often my rpg characters are named alogne.
p.s. you might add a subscription tab to the side bar of your blog.

Alogne, nice… Hmm, didn’t realize I didn’t have a Subscribe Button on the Blog, lol… Actually it crossed my mind at some point, but very briefly. Silly, thanks for that
And thanks for the Comment

A wonderful song, and your words are equally as wonderful! I don’t comment on here quite as often as I should, but while I’m at it, your comic book pages are just fantastic- the look of them and the dialouge looks amazing!

Thank you Anna… I had never heard this song before the night I wrote this, a couple nights ago. But it helped me shape the ending of the Poem/Scribbling I think
I love the way the Comic Page’s came out as well… The Artist I hired to do them is a super talent, she was going to school to be a Comic Book Artist at the time, and if/when I continue to have more of the Story made into Comic Book Page’s, I hope to use her again
Thanks for the compliments, and comments
