A Romance Drenched In Blood

By Imran Ahmed

Pain Is The Sky When It Crumbles And Crashes Burying Your Dreams Beneath Its Merciless Suffocating Weight,

Pain Is The Storm That Shreds Your Body Apart Each Raindrop A Blade Each Gust A Scream Of Despair,

Pain Is The Spell That Binds Your Soul In Chains Locking Your Light Within A Prison Of Endless Night,

Setbacks and Comebacks and Hope Drenched In Fire

Setbacks and Comebacks
Faith goes beyond the fear
It transforms our imperfections
And makes it beautiful

Hope drenched in fire
Destroying the liar!
In truth and sincerity
Your purpose sparkles higher
This is your comeback
Overriding your setback

Let's Get Drenched In Love

It is raining now, once again
Oh dear, do come here
We will swing in a pair
Let this moment, not go in vain.

The pitter patter beat, so neat
Rain will sing us a song
We will shake a hip along
The high disco street, so upbeat.

Drenched In Tears

I am sorry for the fights
we had when you shared my bed.
And the ever-present doubt
that constantly filled my head.

Every flirtation festered,
poisoning my heart and soul.
And amidst the suspicions,
depression levied its toll.

The pain of your betrayal
has torn my whole world apart.
And I have not stopped crying;
since you broke my fragile heart.

I pace the floor late at

Drenched In Red With Saint Valentine

Straight-up the arrows,
hard-pressed the doors
to all the rooms
in all the houses
on Clark Street.

Father Coughlin brought blessings
thinned with broth
from potato peelings.

Women poured tears
into fringed shawls,
and buried their dead
above Dublin’s seashore,
along the banks
of the river Liffey.

Through the years,
the ghost of James Clark,
Bugsy’s brother-in-law,
pursued Al Capone 
all the way to his grave.

Drenched In Red

Drenched in Red, with St. Valentine

Straight-up the arrows,
hard-pressed the doors
to all the rooms
in all the houses
on Clark Street.

Father Coughlin brought blessings
thinned with broth
from potato peelings.

Women poured tears
into fringed shawls,
and buried their dead
above Dublin’s seashore,
along the banks
of the river Liffey.

Through the years,
the ghost of James Clark,
Bugsy’s brother-in-law,
pursued Al Capone 
all the way to his grave.

Drenched In One Another

Yes I can still see her...

through rose colored glasses,

imagined!

In fact,

She is gorgeous.

I remember saying...

or at least thinking out loud

...You take my breath away,

She was a perfect site to behold; I am sure men literally 
fell like pins at the alley, as she entered a room

...and yet she was gentle,
unaffected by her physical beauty,
she had so

Sunflowers Drenched In Sunshine

Sunflowers drenched in sunshine thirst for rain,
their corollas droop as wheat....
lizards leap like rabbits.


Susan takes off her beautiful bonnet;
butterflies won't fly to clouds...
fields burn as a desert. 


Lassie happily plays with a red cat;
Roy is tired and falls asleep...
no breeze blows to soothe trees.

Drenched In Silence

This was originally a poem by my little brother David Breidenthal. You can search it and find that my song version is a little bit similar to his poem. Enjoy! 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have no capability
 to cry for help
I have no energy
 to save myself
Can you hear the silence 
of my sad prayer?
Daddy says You’re mad

Drenched In Red

********;;;;********



taste this veil of mystery
    a fragrant flower blooms there
      lounging on dusk’s thirsty shore
          ...lips turn to red wine

Drenched In Silence

Unbearable thoughts barreling through my head
Decaying in this silent chamber...
Where I desperately cry for help

Words come out useless...I have no capability to yelp
They haven't collapsed in the hands of the unforgiving jail-keeper
This pain grows in my bones...making me weaker
No one bothers to consider me
Circulated by envious glory
That snicker at my carrion body as it drops

Drenched In Red

Drenched in red
My heart burst
When you did leave
And the familiar rhythm
From my chest
Failed to exist
As I was soaked 
In my own love
For you
