Such unmatched beauty surrounds me Yet I do not see it, Lost in a frozen time I wander. In eternal silence I walk the path Of my haunting past, Conversing with the whispering wind. I relive my pains again and again, Cursing my Fate of humanity lost. I am the man of constant sorrow; I live in a world of beauty and warmth, Yet I must wander in cold misery... |

 reports, 1d 1h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

It is the greatest art of the devil to convince us he does not exist.
meepster: no, I don't feel that way about the poetry... I'm looking at the sadness and learning from it, since it gives me the opportunity to be grateful for what I have and forget what I have not!
And thanks for the comment! It's always nice to know my emotions are channeled constructively...
