Wanting to end but unable to start
The rustling of souls as the devil sighs
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Bodies gone numb, hearts filled with pain
The sorrowful mourn of an angels cry
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

You’ve got the world in your palm now everything’s gone
Sitting in silence, absorbed by evil’s song
The unspoken words at a loved one’s final goodbye
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

Lullaby

Eternal bruises on a blackened heart
Wanting to end but unable to start
The rustling of souls as the devil sighs
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Bodies gone numb, hearts filled with pain
The sorrowful mourn of an angels cry
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

You’ve got the world in your palm now everything’s gone
Sitting in silence, absorbed by evil’s song
The unspoken words at a loved one’s final goodbye
Such a sweet but haunting lullaby

Lullaby…

yes a haunting lullaby indeed. I loved this I
was held from the first word to the last word.
The images placed in my head will take a
while to erase. Another lovely poem I think
you've got a new fan.

Thi is a really nice poem. I love that fact that a lullaby can indeed be all those things.

That almost rolled off my tongue! I really felt the rhythm in your piece--and it made me remember why I enjoy rhyme and rhythm so much--all over again. Funny how my first poem uses the same word as your screen name, though I can't say I'm as good as you are. bobotheclown said what I felt: amazing, vivid, images, and haunting rhyme too.
