  By CTS207, Powhatan, VA

  The Nightmare Revisted

  

  By CTS207, Powhatan, VA

  In the present time I closed my eyes to sleep the day’s events away. I was then launched through time to yesterdays long past to the scene where I saw her last as 'mine'. Though the stage was a lecture hall and not her house as I recall. But none the less the play ende...

  Flow of Time

  

  By CTS207, Powhatan, VA

  Time flows like a river people come and go. I alone am forced to watch this truth unfold: As life is brought into existence perfection, it's essence is without end, in light of the future. Hence I find it nowhere but here in this reality: For here we know nothing of what came befo...

  As dawn holds hands with the moon and the stars begin to fade. The arms of the clock begin their dance as time begins to fade. Your face Your face Is all I see Nothing more beautiful or radiant then your face right next to God. Your face Your face Is all I see as I drift off to sleep ...
