Tragedy Beyond

Tragedy Beyond

In my nights I wander aimlessly

Despair I keep and stay

It's kept me in my sorrows

As I keep the hounds at bay

Clandestine is this fraction

Of myself in hate becomes

Of predecessor kindess

Now malignant little hums

I welcome silent voices now

I know their meaning well

From every crack and crevice

Know that we create our hell

I'm sure that I'd be mad

To say I know I'm not insane

Where ignorance is bliss

To know I'm mad is quite the gain

And yet the world is ever full of eyes

And lacking sight

It leaves a gaping hole

On every aimless wandered night

And leaves the heart a ruin

For this soul that carries on

From bitter end to bitter end

And tragedy beyond

What a deep and innovative write, it's a style of wording things I've never seen before and all while rhyming. It's funny but it makes a lot of sense to me, bravo my friend.

I hate to say it but your worst, saddest most depressing writes somehow have a way of being some of the best yet, 4\5 carry on brother!

I agree it, I have more "oh that's the one" moments with my darker more gothic poems though I'm not really goth lol it just sounds more interesting, out of the ordinary in such a world of exhausting cliches. Thanks for the love, stay curious :)

"Be his voice alone, he will love himself" I love that quote and I love this poem. I think it's relevant. You think in an abstract way, I'd love to pick your brain some day.

Words that keep the lantern working. It's great to see you as well and I'm trying to come back more and more but I'll be brutally honest and say "the sea of cliché has kept me away" haha well that and the occasional writers block, but I never forget to come back for old friends and a few of my favorite modern poets. Much love brother!
