Here on my balcony
I see the moon and the stars
Between here and the sea
There are lights, Bright lights
Then just Blackness

The lights represent those few moments
The moments I cherish
But beyond is the blackness
Nothing but blackness, or Nothing
Blackness

Across the water, the mainland
Greece. I know it's there
I see it in the morning
When the sun shines
At night it's gone
The sun shines no more

I like it. Forget the neanderthals.

The only change I could think of was to use the phrase:

Nothing but blackness, or Nothing

Blackness

and change it to

Nothing but blackness, or Blackest Nothing.

But hey, what do I know?

I agree w/ Tath.

This work has PO but is lacking something. Quit sandbagging

and give us all your thoughts. Good start.

I like

the simplicity of this..although I'd like a little more " meat" on it.

It does convey a nice picture/ feeling of sadness and resignation.
