Trail Of Engagement

by Yrem Crish   May 18, 2012


While holding this trophy
my heart glamours for joy;
teary eyes sparked with happiness
when I saw those people behind me...

But, suddenly my eyes
clouded with darkness;
my ears heard nothing,
but a deaf of silence...
I was scared to step on
and afraid to fall
into the cliff hole.

I was in the Garden of Ebony
That clothed with darkness;
And I started to
missed those people
behind me,
but I left them in the milestone
of broken pledge...
I began to cry,
to jitter, and
to regret.
I heard their voices,
calling my name;
I followed their trail
that slowly vanished
and drowned in the air...

I wanted to touch them
with my fingertips,
but I was halted in the ground
Kneeling in the middle of fame
Enduring their faces with severed smiles
I wanted to reach them
but all I did was
embrace this glittering trophy...

    Good poem but some words seemed strange to me (mostly in a grammatical sense).

    But the topic and writing were very good ;)

    Keep it up!

    So I do like this piece, but at the same time... Through out reading it, I got a little confused on it's meaning.

    My initial thought was the moral to this tale is... When you get to the top, don't forget the people who where behind you. Who helped you achieve glory. ???

    "I was in the Garden of Ebony
    That clothed with darkness;
    And I started to
    missed those people
    behind me,
    but I left them in the milestone
    of broken pledge..."

    This poem is very well composed, I enjoyed reading it. You're an amazing writer. :))

    I really feel the moral or lesson of this poem is,

    "while traveling to the top, don't forget to thank and even help the people that got you there.

    A wonderful poem!
