Loss of a Song

by qawsee   Jan 12, 2008


As every heart is broken,
and every man becomes a shell,
the song of an angel is spoken,
a shallow repreive from this hell
but as we lose ourselves
become mere puppets of men
waiting on dusty shelves
for our masters to come with a pen,
label us as broken,
fit only for scrap wood,
for we are shells, unspoken
silent and misunderstood
The cycle continues forever
and no one will ever belong
people are no more than puppets,
because of the loss of a song

    This is such a sad poem. I love how you talk about people becoming puppets. Very clever and creative idea. I like how you express so much in such a short and simple poem. Very nice work. Nik
