Though it may seem like a far fetched dream,
Time can heal all who have been caused pain.
Just like a river flowing down stream.
Never falter in the eyes of the suffering slain.
Silence the whispers and the screams.
For once you do you have nothing more to gain.
^ A great opening stanza, giving the reader optimism and hope, encouraging healing.
To tell you the the truth I have felt this before.
Knowing you are powerless and weak.
Feeling every movement down to my rotting core.
Seeing ever one of your plans down to a technique.
I know for a fact that I will never be able to ignore,
Your face, my memories or these words that I speak.
^ A change in mood, tempo even? Bitterness and disapointment is etched in this stanza. I like the imagery in the way you describing movement in your rotting core!!
Forever will I be doomed to linger by you,
With all these memories that I seem to hold dear,
You have my heart, but its way past overdo.
Even though I see you for who you are loud and clear
I wish that once and for all I could say we're threw.
But my heart still longs for you to stay right here.
^ I love the first line, it has a rhyme all of its own, doomed and you!! A clear message in this stanza. Knowing a relationship is through, but being trapped by love, unable to leave for fear of the pain this would cause. I can relate to this so well!!
Confusing are the matters of the heart,
No human or immortal may understand that fact.
I know that time heals all standing together or apart.
Many have felt this before having your heart attacked.
But we must all have a new life and restart,
So take the blow and suck in the impact.
Its sad how most feelings we have we must depart.
^ You have finished so strongly. Someone has to be strong, someone has to take the first step when love goes wrong. My favourite line out of the whole poem is this one, it is absolutely packed full of emotion and dark imagery - But we must all have a new life and restart,
So take the blow and suck in the impact.
^Fantastic, just like swallowing a bomb!!
