do you remember the scarlet beverage?
do you remember when we were young,
and there was nothing in this world
we would not fight for?
do you remember me before I died?

I am suffocating right now,
numbness is slowly decaying my whole being
but there is a tale left
just before the sun set


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


…lies…
I always dreamed of being a princess
leading the fairy tale life
I wanted to live forever
look upon you and your beauty
never dying, yet always changing…



…truth…
I sit on the bedpost
for 999 days
as Madame Butterfly pays
and listen to the tragicomedy
my life has became



…birth…
as ray of light
strangling the tunes
resting on melodious nights
I am slowly brought to being
dancing slowly on the arms of casualty
all because cause have ceased to exist



…love…
the darkness touches me places
I have never been touched before
The wind kisses me mouths
I have never been kissed before
The moon lights thoughts
I have never thought before



…jealousy…
green, blue, yellow, white
the warmth that consumes the fire
the catalyst that sheds purple tears
and the love that springs fair disgust



…hate…
blood that writes on the pages
of a diary from a thousand years ago
tears that dry on the surface of a dream
anguish that lights a fire
all because we have became mute



...per favore
prendimi,
volio andare in un paese che non chi sonno stata mai
volio esere reincarnata una farfalla
e moriro quel steso giorno...

It's poetry like this that keeps me alive, something worth living for during all of the nights alone.

Your themes for each stanza flow so fluidly into each other ... and emotion is articulated so clearly throughout the poem. A very nice piece!

I have read this several times. Each time I return, it touches me a little deeper; its magic and power forever blooming.

comming from the deepest part of you, it seems, showing us your true and untainted self, your words of sad beauty, your ancient voice, giving life to despair......well done well said...urban

volio esere reincarnata una farfalla- was my favorite line. I don't know what it means, but if someone was to whisper it in my ear I would get really turned on.

it means "i would like to be born a butterfly." I think it sounds better in italian. :) thanks for the comment!

Beautiful write as always ... and goddamn .... the lines "tears that dry on the surface of a dream" took away my virginity once again. [Purple thoughts] Lovely Read. [D&A]
