I've drawn regret from the truth of a 1000 lies,
To All Ye Who Read;
Can I please have your opinion on the poem below?
Listen to my Lullaby of Lies.
My birth, crying in my mother’s arms,
Eyes open, see Earth’s first light,
All hidden wonders, one day I’ll find,
But for now I sleep in my secret solitude.
Infancy. I drag my legs, hold me steady,
My curiosity, the whole world like Pandora’s Box,
All parent’s friends, staring and poking,
Speaking to me in an unknown tongue.
Love. Infatuation. Eyes like blue pools,
Constantly on my mind, running through my mind,
Will it blossom into something more or crash and burn?
When she’s away, 1,000 needles pierce my soul.
Don’t leave me.
Graduation, a feeling of pride engulfs me,
Every bone, every muscle within my knowledge,
As a doctor, no illness I can’t outsmart,
No broken bones beyond my repair.
Standing at the altar. Marriage.
Forever blissful matrimony.
Forever me. Forever you.
Forever us.
I do.
Retirement. Too old, they say.
What happened to forever young?
I have given up, for now it is but a young man’s game.
Only as young as your heart yet now mine grows weak.
Death. The end. The final call.
Cast away into the darkness.
The great abyss. All engulfing.
This is it. I let go. Goodbye.
Death. The end.
The final call.
Yeah, Excel (I think, sorry if thats the wrong name- I mean MercuryDragon [x ) I borrowed your WORLD name for the title. I hope you don't mind [: If you do I'll change it.
Give me your opinion please, I wrote it for english (:
Jackkkkk.
So let mercy come, and wash away what I've done.
