Her Sweet Decay

I closed your voice off
You will never speak again
Forgetting its presence
Wrapped in a red coffin
While it crumbled away
Your sweet decay
But I know you will not speak
Your chords died with the letter
Never the way I once knew
As I pulled the trigger
It all emptied out
One final shout
It seems so distant
It seems so cold
I try to focus on the warmth
But I can't forget the old
I still feel the remorse
I still feel the regret
I know as hard as I try
Closure is something I'll never get
Since I broke you
And threw away
All those pretty words
You had to say
Nauseated, choking, and blurred
I try to grasp the closure
My elusive dream of nothing
Oblivion
What can I give?
I gave my heart
I forced the loss
I played my part
What can you do?
Muted as you are
Nothing for me
Believing is just so hard
The spirit link that binds us
I cannot cut
As much time as I put between us
It will not vanish
I cannot forget someone as meaningful as you
I cannot pretend I do not care
I cannot express my inner-anguish
I know you are something I can no longer bear
To learn to live as two (1)
Myself
And the deceased you
THE PAIN OF LONELINESS IS NOTHING
WHEN COMPARED TO THE TORMENT OF LOST LOVE
SWIMMING OUT THERE
LAUGHING WITHOUT YOU
So I sit her quietly
Everything is tucked away
I digest it slowly
Burning her sweet decay

*hides her face* Fact or fiction? The content is amazing.
I love how you put everything across.
'Her sweet decay' so poetic, provokes so much thought.
In me anyway.
The rhyme scheme, isn't spectacular, but thats a 'big' word (if you know what I mean), its very good though.
5 out of 5 because it reached me. |
