Only if you knew...
How it bleeds inside
The baby born of blood and flesh
Just a hideous beast ruined by time.
Single dame- thousand names
Only if you knew,
How the ice burns my throat
How the wills and wants went cold...
Only if I knew,
What the skies hold for me
I didn't touch the blade,
But the stains don't fade away..
Why the contrition of yesterday
Still pricks my soul's edges
Why the sweet reminiscences,
Still a gloomy haze?
Why the memoirs of divinity
Have turned in immoral disgrace?
Why the reaper can't sing in its solace?
Thee heart keep running but lost in its pace
Why each passing moment moans for the albatross?
Only if we knew...
The curiosities of life
And anxieties open and wide
Don't stop the eyes
Now open and searching life
Taking my chances,
Hiding my grievances
I risk the curve
Once was jilted and deserted from love
I bask in the glow, soak in the sun
Step out of the low
The Satan takes no pity
Leaves the beast with an impaired heart
Now the eyes are shut, the dark creeps in
The clouds come and lo! they win
The stars now astray in a veiled sky
Feeble and faint
Again leave the beast forsaken
But animal instincts they call it
It strives again..
Only if you knew...
How it bleeds inside
The baby born of blood and flesh
Just a hideous beast ruined by time.
Single dame- thousand names
Only if you knew,
How the ice burns my throat
How the wills and wants went cold...
Only if I knew,
What the skies hold for me
I didn't touch the blade,
But the stains don't fade away..
Why the contrition of yesterday
Still pricks my soul's edges
Why the sweet reminiscences,
Still a gloomy haze?
Why the memoirs of divinity
Have turned in immoral disgrace?
Why the reaper can't sing in its solace?
Thee heart keep running but lost in its pace
Why each passing moment moans for the albatross?

Of stars and mist.. |
The curiosities of life
And anxieties open and wide
Don't stop the eyes
Now open and searching life

WHOM IS THIS POEM FOR?
DeleteTo anonymous 1: Thanks :)
DeleteTo anonymous 2: inbox me dear or take a guess, wont you ? ;)
It takes time to "Forgive and Forget" the Past, but the More you dwell in the Past, the Less time you get to Build your Future... Reminiscence is Good, But Repentance is Not...Wishing you Best of Luck!!

I agree! but i think she has been thru more...
Deletewish u luck girl!
We all have been through nothing Less. Believe me, when I say so. Each Point in our life we face something that makes us "Skip a Heartbeat" or "Piss our Pants". We just got to pick ourselves up cause nobody else will. Nobody can rate they have been through more or less. Its just the same share we get from a Bitch a.k.a Life! If we look back we will stumble, if we go back we will make the same mistakes again. Either way there is nothing to win and what only we can do is walk on.
ReplyDeleteRegards and May the gods smile upon you!
Ok this is a message for all folks: I don't dwell in this poem.. it is a reflection of an emotion.. which are very transient.. so thanks for the doses of advice and concern. But well its done over with (as of now :P)
