BLEEDING

Once forever then
no more, re-evaluating
what came before.

Time in years
a distant contract
with mortality, static
possibilities still vivid
within passing seasons.

Captured too far along to
be enraptured a legacy that
begs to be beyond the etchings
that mark a spot, a demise not
where this flesh was begot.

My seed the bleeding of this being
the probabilities of the ever after
without conceding.

Zigs,

a couple of typos:

Re evaluating = revaluating (I think)
Possibilty's = Possibilities

This one runs with a fast flow and leaves you breathless. Again, I bow to your non-grammar, which allows lines to run into others with such ease.

All in all, fast, imagery-packed piece of magic!

I do like the almost

I do like the almost ambiguous feel of this until you bring yourself into it toward the end, the touch of abstract emotions and image in this is strong. I would prefer no 'ing' word ending and I would use 'surrender' but it's a personal thing. This is great freeform.
