The Black Parade

by Kirsty palmer   Jul 21, 2007


Poignant thoughts pass,
As I think of what you once were;
How you used to make me smile-
How anger you used to deter
But now you lay there
Still as the moon in the sky
Your body remains as cold as your heart
No warmth you shall supply

Persistent Thoughts remain,
As I remember how you used to touch;
How you used to hold me near-
How I always longed to be in your clutch
But now thats changed
You no longer hold me with you
Your heart now rests in my palm
Your breathing days are through

Peaceful Momentum escapes me
As I realise you are nothing anymore;
How now you can not hurt my soul
As you lay motionless on the floor
Things have changed;
You're not able to persuade
Any more helpless people;
You like them have joined the black parade

    Quite an interesting poem. The flow was utterly great and very creative.

    How now you can not hurt my soul
    You like them have joined the black parade

    I'm kind of confused with these two lines though, as if somethings wrong with the grammar. But oh well, maybe its just me.

    Great job though.
