Poem
R i V e R Stabbing my heart of hope with your hurtful lies of abominable hatred…we were higher than the clouds overhead…I can’t put these racing thoughts to bed I'll rise like a skyscraper...I won't be weighed down by gravity... Oh no, not anymore – you won’t take away the precious tune of my heart’s melody I slam so hard the abominable door…I still remain sore – you should of not of uttered those words…now, I shed the many tears of sorrow and pain…is there any hope in store? I thought to myself - these starlit scars will never heal, unless God sprinkles salt and pepper upon my distasteful flavor...erase the pain that hits me to the core...yet, you were the one that I-I adore! Well, now, on second thought, I don't LOVE you anymore... The moment you closed the door, I slammed my face against the cold, merciless floor...I dreamt of dreams I longed to explore What is in store? Tell me now...what is in store now? I thought I could take on anything I thought you were my everything You are crawling in my veins… I should’ve had the brains To let go of the fickle infatuations I felt towards you Oh, silly me – now, I’m a lover alone, feeling awfully blue The one you opened to tactlessly stole all that I held dear from every opened pore Deliver me from sorrow's hold... Putting my high spirits in chains… For now, I’m in this captivity, yearning for someone to hold Fear hits me straight in the heart…pangs of pains… Pangs of pains – all I can possibly do is will the pain away Somehow…someday, I’ll save myself from the ruins of today You said you wanted me but you just took advantage of me and stepped all over me as if I was that mat, Placed near the front door of bright opportunities…melt away my frozen frightfulness – ice of isolation ate me up as if I was a rat in the stomach of a feisty, famished cat You’re the one that’s tearing apart and our love bond was nothing but a ridiculous myth in the first place Tragedy, the wolf in sheep’s clothing, hunted me down like prey…I couldn’t keep pace with you…you left me without a trace Like an arrow at nightfall, you seemed to be drawing nearer to your bull’s eye…I witnessed your glory-ardent spirits take flight I’m hoping you and I could soar and depart from the disaster, disorder and debris...the dim light of society blanketed the nostalgic night…what’s the point of falling in love with a dream of you and I flying triumphantly and happy-go-luckily like two entangled kites...at this present time, I wonder why, oh why can’t we shine bright?
