Abject loss. Great job.

Mike

i read this wondering if im ment to be sad or happy? is it loss of life? hope? or dreams? i think its just the dancing without music line thats throwing me it sounds like such a happy line : ) good job though

This poem is basically supposed to be creepy. I wrote it with a feeling of helplessness, and new realization. It is as if I have been doing these things all along, but I know realize that these things are not good, that they are as bad as walking in the dark. Not knowing where to go, questioning everything, left in the cold, letting my imagination run free to the point of insanity. The dancing with music is just giving the idea of lost direction, helplessness, realization of how I was before (dancing with the illusion of music) and how reality is, and kind of being exposed to the world and harsh words (or whatever could be lurking in the dark.) I've rewritten this poem many times, perhaps I should do it again to get the point across better.
