Amaranth

[Wyntre Amaranth]

This poem was written before I took the name Amaranth... It was about a girl whom I loved very much.... Until I made a huge mistake, and she left me... Now I miss her very much. Either way it is irrelevant. I want comments on the peom itself... Nothing else.

Amaranth

Decadence reigns the waking thought, and morning never comes.
Mourning actions, regretting misdeeds, a-plenty...
In sorrow, a shadow, a dark place, residing within the mind.
Then was spied, and wonderous beauty, a lustre, second to none.
The light of purity, a brilliance, untampered with, superb.
Always I sit, and wait, in wonder of this flower's span...
Thirty years I have watched. Amaranth, beautiful as eternity...
Simple as life, just a dream. A dream of reality, a sparkle of creation.
Always I am here, fulfilled, though without sustenance.
Many days pass, losing reality, a touch of psychotic dominance.
I reach for the flower, and over millennia it seems to traverse...
I no longer possess sight, but complete, do I feel.
As the amaranth and I intertwine.
We slowly become one, and the dawn seems to come.
And in the radiant beauty I bask. Not nearly as beautiful, and far less indeed...
I rest with her eternal, I, an amaranth.

This isn't about diablerie. I'm disappointed.

Fascinating(vaguely) and Expressive. Reminds me of days past.... in high school... and I'd pay to have them in a box, to experience at will. In other words, it has a deep passion that I seem to have lost in my quickly receeding youth.... and I'm still in high school, by the way.... so no offense, I didn't mean it like that.

I see... A fellow White Wolf fan! No, it is about the poetic amaranth as it was originally invented to describe an undying flower of strange beauty. Which diablerie represents by the fact that all Kindred are undying and though some beleive cursed, the effect is somewhat beautiful... The tradition stating that this should not be stolen. Anyhow, thanks for your small input.

I understand, Mr./Ms. Angelic... I too am still technically of high school age, and I feel the wear and tear of many years beyond what my wings can handle... Thank you for the deep input. And.... I hope one day, once again, you may find yourself a deep passion in which to immearse your heart.
