Set In Stone
Why, hello darling
I would say it's nice to see you
That would be perfidious, I don't enjoy lying
Oh hunny, you look absolutely dreadful
Laying there in that 6", cold, earthly hole you dug all on your own
Why so oblivious and forgetful?
What hurts you most my dear?
Are you overwhelmed in guilt?
Perhaps your soul is decaying in fear?
You poor thing, you thought you could hide from sin
You won't find sanctuary in the light, in the corner nor in the dark
Sweet child, your penance is merely about to begin
Don't cry, you don't sin alone
The others, too, float in darkness
Because, like you, their destiny is set in stone

wow, I missed this one, Amber, it's a terrific read, thank heavens I decided to see if you had posted anything new.... first off, I love reading poetry from 'the edge'...when a poet puts something out that is a little 'unsafe' or off the 'beaten path' or 'grid' and it takes 'balls' (or lady balls) to do it, in music, it was called indie or 'new' music, back in the day, (at least in Toronto) and this poem has a different, new and edge tone, not so much in the subject matter, but the construction has this very cool, 'I'm just writing what I feel like writing' liberating, breath of fresh air quality, and you didn't have to re-invent the wheel to pull it off....enjoyed the read, gutsy cool kick arse, poem....you're good, and can write anything you want, no doubt....cheers
Hey Chris, thanks some have told me my writing is a little "dark" lol but that is my style and at times my entries here are more of journal entries. Thanks for reading friend
