Let It Bleed

by Beautiful Chaos   Nov 28, 2007


A heart lay breaking,
A soul is aching,
Driven mad tonight,

Insanity falling,
Down like rain,
Erasing what felt right.

Drink it down,
And turn around,
Face the life you live,

Nothing more,
Can come from it,
If never, we forgive.

Cry and scream,
Forget the dreams,
But hold onto your soul,

Bleed it out,
Pain and sorrow,
You're still in control.

You choose to feel,
And see what's real,
Or drown inside the lies,

Time will give,
When you let go,
Bittersweet good-byes.

    First thing that hits me about this poem is the fun new structure of it. I think it's quite simply adorable. The short sharp lines give an urgent or rushed tempo to it, forcing you to read on.

    Even though this is a short poem (in terms of word count) you fill it with such lively and dark images.
    For me, you really went to town on this on.

    Loved the last line of this. Your unusual rhyme scheme was interesting too. It had a very neat structure to it so that it kept you reading to figure it out. I feel the last stanza really does let the truth shine, too. Because if we just let things go, goodbye may be hard, but it will come. good job!
