Cursed Blessing

Contributed by Vic on Wednesday, 28th January 2009 @ 09:53:39 AM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics

As the night approaches dawn
I’m still tossing in my bed
Trying to drive the demons
Those are dancing in my head

My eyes are weary; my mind is not
I lay my head to rest
Even my reflection treats me like a guest

A man that’s got his past to bear
Is like a nightmare in a dream
He has to face the harsh reality
If the one he trusts should set a snare
He’ll hear his own tired scream
His blessing is his curse can’t you see?

Lying in the dark
I feel emptiness around
A life of broken dreams
Is the only thing, I’ve found

“Handsome is as handsome does”, is what it used to be
Now money conceals every thing of beauty.

A man that’s got his past to bear
Is like a nightmare in a dream
He has to face the harsh reality
If the one he trusts should set a snare
He’ll hear his own tired scream
His blessing is his curse can’t you see?

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©
