Words slide off the lead,<br /> creating permanent marks;<br /> writer&#039;s secret code. <br /> ~Lindsey O&#039;Connell


The moonlight glows
Through the stained window
Which heartbreakingly knows:
It is not real.
Yet still it yearns
To love and to feel

The child crys
On this day
Her soul dies
Confusion and pain
A lifetime or torments
All due to one flickering flame

Darkness envelops light
This neverending battle
Between the Sun and the Night;
Countless numbers fall to the "Cause"
Whilst all this could be over
If leaders would simply pause
