with throats bare to fates sharpened blade,

lives quiet of sound only to be timed
by bliss and bags of delirium,

destiny dying by the minute’s turn
undetected potential left them stupefied,

delirious from altitude’s sickness
the peak could never be envisioned,

kite’s flying high never lingering low
as the white wind strings them along,

jaded from wrong, the answers
painted over by consumption and lust,

a new beginning cast behind the sun
waiting to shed the fires shadow,

pleasures pixels blinded by pearls
they fall into the abyss of captured lights

Lost Kites

Topic: Sad Poetry


Contributed By: duff

They were danger’s dolls smearing lips in sin
with throats bare to fates sharpened blade,

lives quiet of sound only to be timed
by bliss and bags of delirium,

destiny dying by the minute’s turn
undetected potential left them stupefied,

delirious from altitude’s sickness
the peak could never be envisioned,

kite’s flying high never lingering low
as the white wind strings them along,

jaded from wrong, the answers
painted over by consumption and lust,

a new beginning cast behind the sun
waiting to shed the fires shadow,

pleasures pixels blinded by pearls
they fall into the abyss of captured lights
