Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Pain and Gloomy Rain

Written: August 18, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In the realm where words intertwine, A tale of rain, fierce to remind, Where shadows dance, emotions ignite, Beneath the veil of a moonless night. The heaviest rain falls, a torrential pour, As if the skies weep and implore, To cleanse the world of all its pain, Washing away the sins and the stain. And in this tempest, I stand alone. Realizing my own stupidity, I bemoan How easily I was deceived and led astray. By the one who held my heart at bay. I whim our love was true and real. But now I grasp the truth—the deal. You acted as a magician, tugging the strings. Guiding every action, and the delight it brings. If only I had suspected if only I had known, Behind your smile, darkness had grown. Your eyes, as a stormy sea, are so deep. Hiding the secrets you would always keep But now, I view it through your guise. The color of your eyes—the truth it implies. For in the depths of your gaze, I find, A reflection of wickedness, malice, unkind. Lucky was I to have seen through the veil. To have escaped your twisted tale. To have realized your intentions were so vile, And now, my heart—longs to defile. In my sight, you once held such sway, But now I'd wish to devour you, push you to pay. For the pain and the lies you inflicted on me, I'll reclaim my power and set myself free. In this realm where words intertwine, I'll write a raw story, one that's wholly mine.
