Strong Words

by Weeping Wolf   Sep 19, 2005


How can we be gone by tomorrow
Without saying goodbye to yesterday?

Rest in Peace
Words that lie upon my grave
yet it is restless with regrets
laying under the weight of apologies
A misunderstood soul with no joy
nothing more now than human remains
thrown into the ground closer to hell

Burning down there unable to escape
Damned, hurt, screwed, pained
Strong words murdering my mind
Tears, sadness, misery, sorrow, death
sad words sink into my skin take control
Pulsing dead veins feel the pain
Of the strong words that are buried here as well.

I wished to see tomorrow again
but i never even left yesterday
stuck in the past, left there alone
Future will go on without me
But before i finally go...
you must know what it was like before...

The wreckage of my soul
was stuck in the barren wasteland
of the tragic disaster called Life
I had fallen out of the arms of the angel
who had left me n flown away from here
I was betrayed before being born

Only shadows I trusted
for everyone else had dead hope
as grace was but an illusion
and they believed in a faith
that was born after the death of the holy
Telling secrets when backs were turned
Why are they always causing conflict
that they cannot need or solve?
I knew too many of their sins
which soon in time i shared
I never wanted to feel with emotion
because that only hurts more than death
no one too save me from myself
which was dying inside my charred soul

Strong words of sins n stories of hate
I write as though i have died
For the words are strong and have feeling
to express the emotions that surround me
wish i never had to take part in all this
I want to be empty of all the quiet pandemonium

Why is it that of all the creatures on this earth
Humans are the only ones who can cry?
But of course, it is only the speech
the strong words that people murmur to each other
That causes the tears and weeping
so without words wouldn't u think less tears
Good thing other animals of this sinful place
Cannot speak those words like us-
For then we would be drowning in our own
Tears.

    I just reread your poem and it's like every time I reread it I pick up something I missed the first time around.

    and they believed in a faith
    that was born after the death of the holy
    Telling secrets when backs were turned

    Most excellent lines. I hope you never stop sharing your talent with us. :)

    I voted your poem as a 5, it is absolutely wonderful! I love the meaning, the technique used to write it, everything. I love the introduction...very deep. Only suggestion is that you might actually thnk about placing it elsewhere...absolutely awesome poem though!
