[brian]

I've never been in a cave. Although I think it would be very interesting, I know I'd need a good strong light because like so many others, being in an unfamiliar place, I'd like extra light so there would be no surprizes. I don't like dark surprizes.

Bats...lots of bats. Vampires in caves? Bela Lugosi was a vampire in the movies...maybe he lurks in a cave. Undead undead undead, Bela Lugosi's dead.

All's cave in on me. The last time I felt that way was.. I wish I could say yesterday. But that is being to ungrateful to everything in my life. I was home from England. Giving up all my dreams. And all caved in then.

The darkness that surrounds me isn't even what scares me most. Nor is it the tiny flicker of flame that's sure to die out soon, or the pitter patter of the droplets of water the sky decided to throw at me. It is the howlin of the wind that scares me like nothing has ever scared me before; it screams like a banshee, like something evil is going to come and get me, kill me, take me. I close my eyes and it all gets sort of better. Sort of.

Locked in a dark area. It was much to like a cave. Feeling trapped within, and knowing I had one way out. 'Follow the light' was the last thing he told me? But it looked like the sun ran out, becuase there was no glint of light anywhere to be found. I was once again, lost and alone.

Dark and shadowy, where I want to hide. Hidden in a forest, with bears, and bats, and other night time creatures. A place of honesty, where no lies exist. Cave in. Cave out. I don't know.

the explorer had no idea what he was getting into. this was a cave of a whole new sort. it was a mental cave, one where all of his darkest and meanest memories and thoughts remained. they luked there, awaiting his return to their lower sanctum. tonight there would be a feast.

Womblike place that brings forth life to the rest of the world....Momma Earth breathes out primeval forces from these volcanic vulvas....I've been accused of being a bit of a hermit, you know a bit of a cave dweller in the past. It's only that it's so warm and comforting here in my little piece of indulgent space...

Urgh! That's what my husband said when he came home. Not: Hi honey how was your day? But Urgh! He should be living in a cave! maybe he'd like to set me beside a large fire to cook for him too, bastard!

Cave in. When you've dug yourself so deep into a hole filled with lies, all of a sudden you have no choice but to cave in. Oh, what an awful feeling.

There was a large cave at the end of the forest, and John and Jake were curious about what was in it. A monster maybe, or that old creature no one dared to talk about? Maybe it was just the home of a bear family, with a mother bear, father bear and 3 little bear children. Whatever it was, they wanted to see it, and it would happen t

I recently did my first shamanic journey which involved a trip to the underworld the passage of which was through a cave. I chose the Warsaw caves just outside of Peterborough. I love those caves they just pop out of the woods.

I once had a description of a cave in a game I played. A roleplaying game. I had actually stolen bits and parts of it from some anthology, and re-formed them into a whole that I liked. The room itself didn't go anywhere. You couldn't leave it to go into the cave, and the cave had no description beyond a simple 'at the end of the path, there is a cave.' But everytime I wanted to be safe and get away, into that cave I would go.

[Silvermoon]
I don't think I can do it I feel myself cave. I hate that I can't ever stand up, I can't stand strong. I always cave, in the end. What does that say about me? Am I that sympathetic to everyone else? Or do I just not trust myself?

squinting, the intense light of awareness, feeling everything for the first time. hurts my eyes, but only in the beginning, then my heart feels weightless, spirit floating... but still tethered to my regrets, shadows lurking with flickering ghosts. how to i climb back in and reach them without getting lost, tumbling into the darkness again?
July 22, 2003 02:53 PM

dark, simple and wonderful...scary and hiding into the world...no one around me nothing but black...smell of water comes flooding in but i'm still sequestered, hidden from the world, and therefore happy because i am away from all of you...

I hide in the very back of the cave. THe cave of treasure, where I have carefully hidden every shining gem and jewel of my emtions away. No one knows about the cave except for me, no one can get here except for me. I'm sure only I can see the true beauty of my feelings.

cave. dark mysterious, you put me in a cave, you shut me out from the world, iw asn't allowed anything and i didn't get anything until one day i say the light in th ecave and i looked at it wondering how long it was there.. and then i saw you..
July 22, 2003 03:06 PM

my heart is pounding...but your stepping harder crushing the walls....everything is closing in on me....me heart...the fragile glass and fearie wings and dandolions are breaking pieces everwhere....your harsh words are caving in on me...i can't take the pressure you don't love me anymore...but i still love you....

If you've read John Gray's Mars/Venus book, you'll know where I'm going with this entry. My husband does retreat to what John refers to as his cave, but we like to think of it as a (oh crap, I forgot the name we gave it). Anyway, it's funny how a difference in titles can change one's perspective of their own reality.

The cave was cool and damp as I walked in, nearly skidding on the wet moss that lined the ground. Bats were fluttering in the darkness beyond and I couldn't see any of their flapping, only heard the squeak of voices and chattering of whatever

A fire burned in velvet darkness. We huddled closer to it, seeking its warmth, its light, anything that would offer a modicum of comfort in the cold, darkness that was seaping in around us.

i'd like to live in a cave. a perfect natural home from the elements, rustic and organic. yet, still strong enough to hold up a roof and hard enough to require a pillow. i always wanted to be one of those hermits who built a cave out completely and figure out a way to generate their own power and running water, kinda swiss-family-robinson-like. dreams rule. maybe one day, reality.

I'm in a cave it's dark and cold and musty and I can't quite breathe. There's no one here -- or is there? I think I can feel something close to me. I wonder if there's fungus here, if it can hear me, if it will try to kill me. A grunt, a snort. Is it a boar or a bear? The two are spelled similarly!

What the fuck. Cave. This is a hole. A Chasm. Is that spelled right? Some person gave me this site, and I get the word cave. Okay, so I'm thinking of Penn's Caves - where me and Brittany first knew and saw what a cave was... it was so stupid. It was cold, and boring, and we rode in a boat, and it sucked major balls. Caves are stupid. Caves are boring. I do not like caves. Caves - be gone!

Fungus grows in caves. Cave ins can bury living things. You can cave in to your work, your boss, or the opinions of others. A cave can be a cool place to hide in. Cave can be positive or negative. Let me find the right cave. But, if I should go left, lead me.

my heart feels like it will cave in. you told me to trust you. that it would be ok in the end. you said you loved me. i guess not because you obviously lied. my heart feels like its caving in everytime i hear your name, or read your notes to me. i hate you.

cave. I wish I could be in one! thats not true if I were in a cave...I would. well I don't know, if I were in a cave I would be isolated and not stressed probably so that would be a good thing. I could be a caveman! They didn't seem to have to worry about college or deep friendships or family...they just ate and slept and knocked around and well...I need to live in a cave.

It was all caving in. The marriage, the bills, the responsibility. Everything. but I wasn't about to leave. I think maybe if he hadn't left, it would have been okay. There would have been medications and doctors appointments, but we'd have been okay. But it all came crashing down.

Alone in my cave. This is where I am happy, where I cannot be bothered. Never again will mankind find me in here. The dripping drowns out my cries as I scream my day away, trying to make the echoes shake a stallagtite loose to crush me. Let me out, let me in.

trapped inside of a cave, darkness swallows me whole and i fear that death is coming: i can't see feet in front of me and i've never been this afraid in my entire life. i long to be held, but their are too many regrets to turn around and look back. i'd give anything to see your face one more time.

Cave, to hide in a cave, or have your skull caved in. There's apparently a singer named Nick Cave, but i have no idea who he is, other than he has my same first name.

He's not ashamed to cry, and he's not ashamed to do what it takes to get his way. I don't mind. He never gives in to me though. But I really don't mind.

During a family reunion in West Virginia, we all took a trip to these huge crystal caverns, very tourist-intensive. We reached the main cavern on the tour and I just wanted to stand there in silence and be awed, but no one would shut up, and so instead I stood there and shivered, too cold, too damp. Too far underground.

and like that, I give in to you, because I can't stand the waiting the watching the wishing as long as you can, you can always hold out longer, you can always throw up a wall. i try but I fail, giving in, caving in, like earth or clay or damp cardboard boxes. i give in.

Never been in a real cave before. An honest to goodness, look-I'm-Mother-Nature-and-I-made-a-cave. Makes you wonder about the "naturality" (that's not a word) of a lot of things: mountains for skiing, city parks, fields for farming, etc.

I feel the damp jagged edges of the cave's wall as I carefully step thru the deep darkness. For each footstep I wave my foot in a sweeping semi-cirle before me, checking for debris. The light is far behind me, a mere pinpoint now. I am alone save for the occasional bat rustling thru the air above me. A good place to

I coughed up blood that wasn't mine, tore at rock with hands and feet that didn't belong to me, trying to get out, trying to dislodge that shard sticking out of someone's body as they screamed in that alien, foreign voice. Tried to get out. I abandoned them back there in that cave, but when the fishermen found me they said there was no one else, and I died without knowing it.

a cave of emptiness rests inside. brought on by the swell of anger it waits. she stands on the corner, legs bent in pain, she has broken her last chance, lost the truth and abandoned her hope.

Cave in. Give in. Give up. No way. I wasn't going to give up, not after fighting for so long. I now knew that life wasn't easy. Once I thought it was, but with every set back and trip up, I knew the only way not to fall into the cave was to keep getting up.

dark dank hole in the earth - there for me to explore with headlight on helmet and pickaxe. i'll take all my friends and our protective gear into the cold stone core of the earth by means of a random cave and we'll toast to the eons of time we find etched in the once-molten rock.

I crawled into the cave, bending and unable to see, not frightened but surrounded totally by darkness, my feet bare against the rocks, pushing against stone feeling for life underneath my feet. I nestled there hovering. bent over In search of nothing in particular.

I once found a cave, it was as deep as anything I'd ever seen, a bat or lizzard could spend years in it and never reach the other end. It was dark and cool, really fun to play around and explore, that is untill that damn balrog came storming across the floor and chased us over thuis chasm

She knelt down, scooping up the dank cave water with her hands, taking big gulps. She had been walking all day, and needed somewhere to rest. She didn't know why she was going there. Taking the jewelled medallion from her breast pocket, she sighed, gazing and contemplating the importance of such an artifact. She missed home.

Once in summer camp, I had this fat counselor who used to take us spelunking. He was enormous. He said that any space your head can fit through, your body can follow. I didn't believe him at first but he got into some small places. it was cold down there. But we followed him. he was soooo fat. it was amazing to see him crawl through holes.

Inside this tunnel of love I look for the light at the end. I want candles, I want warmth, I want the end of the silence, the end of this uncertainty, the end of this powerlessness. The cave is everything I do not want here. Love is nothing if it cannot be safe instead of dark and uncertain. I used to see a cave as something to explore and to delight in. Instead, I have been in here for too long and the damp is getting to me.

Cavemen - maybe they had the right idea of what the world should be. Cruel killing, blood and gore and white, eaten flesh. Survival. Maybe they had it all down pat, and we just can't see. what do we have this for? computers, technology, education. why? to slave for our futures? i don't make sense.

He was isolated in that cave. Away from humanity and away from the people he loved dearest. Sometimes he cried, sometimes he screamed. He didn't doubt he was already insane.

If only he could see her face in that dark abyss...

Cave... I crawl towards the darkness. I hide for the light, for I fear what the work will see, and I will see in myself, if I stand in the light. But is this God's path?

the desperate crawl towards darkness. everytime you get a little bit closer..it's just that little bit further away, and somewhere deep inside you is the knowledge that the unspoken promises will always hold you back.but the search goes on and on, just like you will continue to draw every last available breath even as you die. so +don't+ you look me in the eye and tell me that everything will be alright.

The twelve year old boy crawled out of the cave. He spent the night terrified, having been left behind in the mountains by his parents. "This is a test," they told him.

The cave is dark, mysterious, deep. When you enter it, you can hear the echo of water dripping around you, an ancient sound that has been happening there for as long as the cave has been there.

Kentucky, where I live is known for it's caves. There is a fish at Mammoth, who has stayed in the dark so long he is now blind.

Jim had always wanted to go caving. He had lived near a cave for a short time while he was staying with his grandfather in North Carolina. He would sneak down to the cave and look in, hoping to see a big grizzly bear, or maybe a bat. He never did, but the cave still held quite an interest for Jim.
