David B Doc Byron


Her own head turned toward mine, and fixed me
with dialtaed, dead eyes.
That alone stopped my blood.
Her voice came at me like an echo in the dark.

Now there is only this coldness I have to wear
like skin.

Is this an awakening?
Or is it my last breath?
No longer real inside this deep darkness where
I'm lost.
I awake in the terrible moonlight....alone.

Now there is only this coldness I have to wear like
skin.

I could foresee your departure,
but I still wanted to hold you.
But not prisoner.
If I could reverse the spell of death I'd hide you
beneath my skin.

"My interpretation is that the man is dreaming of his past love (who has died... maybe?) I was intrigued and I loved the verse "Now there is only this coldness I have to wear like skin"... -- Line 2, 'Dialtaed'. Is this supposed to be 'Dialated'?" -- Reagan Rothe, Houston, TX, USA.
"Excellent Doc.... sent a cold chill through my body." -- Michelle.
"I think I understand this one, Doc ... very powerful" -- Judith.
"Nice work. I can see it being a bit logner though." -- R. Bennett Okerstrom.
"LONGER...jeeze." -- R. Bennett.
