can't get the screaming
out of my head
sometimes silence
is the loudest sound of all...
she wore her silence like a shawl,
draped across her shoulders
defiant against the cold;
nevermind the heat,
his words harsh
flames that
cannot
melt
ice.
I'm standing at the window,
counting hours, days, eternities,
oven-warm candlelight flickering,
and your silence weaving strings
that guide me like a puppet.
Ok here are the results for this entry.

Icarus Dreams
He had Icarus dreams,
it was not for the flight
that he longed.
But the descent,
the freedom of the fall,
abandon, out of control,
between life and death.
For that one beautiful
moment, you gave yourself up
entirely.
Falling
Through the patience of our hearts
Sorrows fall and grieving starts.
trap opens
he falls
rope snatches
sudden stop
bottom floor
death and damnation
exit all...

drop the falling
end of day
fall commences
ruins drop
heavy load
light is road
The End of Fall
I on the bed,
The last rain,
My stale tears,
His photograph,
The ring he gave
All painfully fell.
Thanks for all the entries, all! I enjoyed reading each:
Dark Muse: From the title to the last line, I loved the imagery and the playful irony!
YesNo: Minimalist and profound!
Pendragon: you starkly nailed a fall - makes me sure that I hope that's not the way I go!
Cacian: a nice, minimalist take on fall!
miyako73: vivid, and sad!
Again, nicely done, all, but in the end there can be only one winner... And this time it is... Dark Muse!!! Congrats!!
Thank you very much!
Ok next topic is
"Storm"
