as we watch the murder on the stage
We are dancing to the soundtrack of our lies
Like a pen on an empty page

There are songs from a wounded heart
As it all begins to come unstitched
Here we are falling apart
but we just stand with eyes bewitched

Now, you're here without your clothes
You want to know why I move so slow
You say, "Come on boy, now here I am
Let us meet like time's hands"

But underneath the sheets are only ghosts
of all the things we miss the most
I'd rather know what lies beneath your skin
Before I go crashing down again

But now here I am, I've lost my handle
Torn to pieces, a heart dismantled
You forgot what I was whispering about
when I said don't let it all burn out

And again, I was cut down where I stood
by Love, in her executioner's hood
As the fabric came apart inside my mind
It was a murder of a different kind [comments] => 1 [counter] => 135 [topic] => 32 [informant] => stalkee [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

Love's Execution

And the smiles glow inside our eyes

We are dancing to the soundtrack of our lies
Like a pen on an empty page

There are songs from a wounded heart

but we just stand with eyes bewitched

Now, you're here without your clothes
You want to know why I move so slow
You say, "Come on boy, now here I am
Let us meet like time's hands"

But underneath the sheets are only ghosts
of all the things we miss the most
I'd rather know what lies beneath your skin
Before I go crashing down again

But now here I am, I've lost my handle
Torn to pieces, a heart dismantled
You forgot what I was whispering about

And again, I was cut down where I stood

As the fabric came apart inside my mind
It was a murder of a different kind

Great poem! I really like it, with all its haunting and imagery filled lines.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

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. ©
