I had an image of someone trying to recover from something, then when she thought she can do it, she collapses, and dies again. That's what your words did!

It's simply astonishing how you can induce such strong responses from just a couple of line. A tragic, sorrowful feeling I absorbed reading this. Was this inspired by "Wuthering Heights"?

Why is this so sad? It makes me feel down.

i can relate... very nice

This is nice.
It reminds me of that one song by Sting .. umm ... (goes to look) YES! "The Lazarus Heart" from "...Nothing like the Sun"
"From the wound a lovely flower grew
From somewhere deep inside"
Not twins, but ..,. you know.
Sorry about the genres my poems are under, I hate trying to figure out how to catogorize my own works! Summaries are also hard. I look to you all to help me define my poetry!
I agree with you on why I write more sad/dark poems. It is easier to just be with a happy feeling and not philosophize about it. But, with the damper emotions, you need some kind of salve, exit, or explanation.
