Words, so powerless and innocent as they are as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them.


She is gone
And with her
Has fled my first
Ambition. Now
I find comfort in
Splendor and spotlights.
For as the ardor perished, dreams flew in close by.
As the black of night intoxicated me, the
Dawn was ever drawing nearer. I saw
Life balance itself in my trails of ink.
Every flavor of my life has
Been made sweeter. I am my words.
Encourage me. Need me.
Follow me and love me.

This is my new poetry form, the Chateau (French for castle). I'm still working with it, but this form is for poems that convey fortitude.
