What now?

Contributed by TimWilliams on Wednesday, 26th April 2006 @ 09:14:28 AM in AEST
Topic: StoryPoetry



His red heart turns upon him,
And demands reason from a shattered mind.
But the mind in falsehood excelling,
Lies to it's friend, for the sake of them both.
Hurried excuse brings comfort, but forces bad deed.
Now, together, they have committed a most terrible crime,
The murder of dying dreams, The assassination of an innocent man.
They take the dagger, and together deal the fatal strike.

As he lies dying, with his closest enemies held tight in his embrace,
He removes the stained dagger, which has left a hole deeper than any other.
He holds it in front of him, and brings it closer, to join his final embrace,
And carved upon the handle, he sees the name of the one he loved so dear.
With a silent cry he releases the dagger and beckons to his killers.
All of them are free.

That is a thought provoking write. To me it seems suicidal but that is true when we talk about any subject like this. There is always a part of us that we struggle to overcome and it always threatens to unwrest us.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
