Factualism Of Life
--S.I.Khan
The life we live
Is the life so erratic
To some, it's boundless beauty
But to rest, it's lethally traumatic
As blissful canopy, scorching sun, and tsunami waves
Are some countless eternal bits that our life plays
Some cries, some laughter, some successes, some disaster
Collars off entirety, to some, bestows like petals of aster...
Witnesses some tales brimming with bemoaning tears
To a new land, a saline smile of a damsel that it shares...
Somewhere it’s an ocean full of angelic blessings
Somewhere life is spoken words of unsaid confessings.
linear constellations
publish prophecies
bereft of precision
birthing brand new eyes
like boomerangs they oscillate
across nimble currents
though once momentum surmounted
factualism had begun to trickle
Wasted breath upon my chest
Your apologetic cries vacant of truth
A phallic way, you try to impel my thoughts
Masquerading the factualism behind it all
A charlatan, a cheat you are
Diluding the actions of your sins
Presiding yourself as the victim
Another long-winded,air-castle dream
I just wasn't enough to sate your needs
Your parsimonious goals
To the arms of another you fled
Painted on pleasantries,diveying your role
Turning my life into a dispondent mess
Forgiveness will never fall from these lips
Your fate lies within far worse hands
I will no longer cry desolate tears
You will know my woes,feel my anguish
The haunting of what could have been will
Sit upon your doorstep as a reminder.....
Goodbye my misery.
