The point of feelings

by Ria   Dec 9, 2004


Darkness is canny
When lightened by fear
This face in the mirror
A beauty so sheer

When trying to forget
They come back even stronger
Those feelings you kept forever
under cover

My heart is still bleeding
When I thought it was healed
Old memories are creeping
Back to where they were dreamed

Your eyes are my heaven
Your touch is my sin
I couldn’t fall better
When I said I could leave

Love cannot silence
Love is a scream
I knew when I met you
Again in a dream

What is the point of feelings
When buried is what they have to be?
What is the point of crying for a love
sold for a dream?

I’ll keep you in my arms,
my ragged dream
and we shall dance astray
I’ll hold your kiss in vaults of ecstasy
So as the world won’t see my pain

I can’t accept the stars
Have ceased to glow
I can’t believe that in bright lies
I’ve dressed my sanity and sorrow
There is no star up there in space
There’s nothing left that
Has its grace

This night is almost over
And I have no excuses still
What is desire?
What is love?
And what is sin?

I should let go
I should obey
But this is more
than I can take
I break my innocence tonight
All hope shall burn
I’ll make you mine in a paradise
of hell

    The rhyme scheme isn't constant throughout the poem. I figured you would be anal about that since you pointed it out with me.

    But overall, I like it.
