I am tired
rivers freeze
in the winters silence
lights to not obide
to loves eternal promise
time gasps
And i find,
Darkness....
Helpless.... What can i ask of you?
As your eyes hold the truth
we thought we never knew
I quiet down into my bodies arch
nesting my orphaned heart
There are empty halls to walk
im not ready, No I cant do this
this isnt what you promised me!?
try to grow hope
but the earth lies barren under
snow like lovers ashes
ready to catch us
as our bodies collapse
we cry like infants,
can you see us?
As the rain washes us
into a new dawn....
And me?
Well ill pull my body through the day
between burnt out streetlights
I am just another prayer
In a city full of aching knees
faces falling to the ground
chapels seem to lye beneath
Put in this cemetary grey
the only promise, scattered crosses
sinking like teeth
... everybody is dying to live
and there is noone left to grieve

Im taken with this. really rather good.
Im talking about 'there is noone left to grieve'.
It seems to reflect the fact of what happening- that people are becoming more selfish ('everyone is dying to live') and therefore neglect to a degree the memories of their friends who have died because theyre busy with themselves. I dont need to tell you that.

Very nice write.. I am sure I found a different view of how you did when you wrote it..
Lies, lies, and more lies.. much of the earth is dressed in a deafening silence of lies.
It is tiring.. yet.. there is enough energy to keep us going on to find the truth..
Questions seek answers and sometimes it is a long jouney down an empty hall trying to find them.
Promises many times are not kept and its tiring, fighting for what we believe is ours.
Wow, when that one day comes, all who have died to live.. will be great..
The noones left to grieve will be grieving for sure..
Yours truly,
Raquel Leah (poetress) |
