Final Words

Contributed by JayBryant on Wednesday, 7th May 2008 @ 01:25:20 AM in AEST
Topic: goodbyepoetry

I blame myself for my undoing
For my love leaving my side
Spent my time fighting battles
While she was left behind
On that rare occasion
Making my way toward home
I opened the door and entered
My love embraced with another
Thoughts and emotions spun in my head
Like a maelstrom, unrelenting, full of chaos
The stormed calmed and the clouds covering my eyes disappeared
I looked upon the body of my love and the other
My sword painted red
I got to my knee’s and held her close
People came and took me away
I sit in this damp dark cell
Carving and scraping into the brick
These are my final words
When I’m taken before the gallows
And asked if I had anything to say
I will be silent
And when the devil greets me in hell
And questions me on which torture I wish to receive
I will be silent
No torture can be as painful
As killing your love
Carved into this wall
Are my final words.

This so painfully beautiful. I as well felt nthat I deserved this torture but for different reasons. This is a great poem!!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
