[bodytext] => A chest with a lock Shadow and smoke from within Surprising motives that drive you Wake up and find that you must begin A maze Twisted and turned to the end Eternity just to find a way Jumping through hard times, from friend to friend Compromise your happiness Bite the bullet and try to pretend Smile even though they kill you A sword through the temple, blood marked on a letter they would never send Caught without words to tell them They whisper after you've turned your head They wish for you to return to them In reality they are already dead Burn the villages as you travel Tyranny and riches at their best Let them get the best of you A fortune piled so high, you forget all the rest You find that it's forbidden Tears stream with no telling to where they will end The shadow and smoke will consume you Such a dark place and no sign of a friend A hassle you'd rather not deal with Toss the chest to the ground Lock yourself in a familiar surrender Ignore the cries for mercy, and not utter a sound Struggle for self preservation A sword stuck between the ribs of the cage Blood stains the ground beneath you Whisper a thank you after your bloodshed of rage Find a weaker tendency to comply with Search for new values that were left unsaid They'd rather starve you slowly Awake the next morning to find you alone in the bed Decapitate the leader Grab the reigns of a faithful steed Cry out for all of the innocent people Give them exactly what they need Find satisfaction in your duties Cut them with a smile on your face Such simplicity you find in killing As you move so swiftly from place to place Friends and loved ones will follow Most will never find there way You will see more than all of them One thousand years pass as if one day If only you hadn't found the chest And cursed yourself and all of your friends Shadow and smoke surrounds you Wisks you away before the story ends Low over the treetops Power beyond your wildest dreams Awake to find yourself alone again And nothing is ever as it seems Friends become foes all over again Time folds into the seams of your mind Chains that will never release you A sword that keeps you to your kind Keep you well, said the sword As inability takes it's hold You've never felt so alone and its awful A taste of copper and it tastes so bold Wasteful tension reminds you Sadness and apprehension accompany each passing day They tried their best to follow But time kept them from finding the way It's sad to think of the whispers Their prayers to keep just before they died You never told them your answers You never really tried Cut them down with passion Bloodthirsty and it was your way Cut yourself just to feel them And down beside her you lay Tools of deception Incomprehensible sighs No need for an answer For in the end, my darling, the answer always lies This is the story I told to them They laugh and mock me as they will But I remember the looks on their faces Caught in surrender and fear, I remember them even still I cut them down with pure tension An evil sword with a mark across its crest I swing with utter contempt tonight I awake the next morning and move, always forgetting the rest No need to worry tonight, my darling I have not heard word that its your turn For when that time is upon you I will choose for myself to burn Such beauty is possessed within you I wouldn't dare ruin such a thing I would cut down the most righteous of heroes Before I clipped an angel's wing I take heed to the wisdom of old ones And I fear no mortal enemy in this place I shall sleep once more this evening Next to you, with a smile on my dying face [comments] => 0 [counter] => 433 [topic] => 31 [informant] => Exodus [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

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. ©
