The Days of Broken Wings

[DeathIsLove]

My face was white was winter

As I began to wither

My mind caught up to what was right

That's what gave my heart it's fright

Questioning myself at every turn

How could I let you burn?

 

I felt as if I could fly

But those moments passed us by

The words I left unspoken

Could have been the token

That night became my stigma

Which shall forever remain an enigma

 

If you know what I mean

Then maybe I can come clean

I thought I learned my leassons

That's when I told him my confessions

Now my stomach churns

Why did I let you burn?

 

He broke me once to many

Left me grasping for an epiphany

That night began the repression

My scars became aggression

Fueling my mind to erase the time

I once called you mine

 

I was the one that sold my soul

Why must they pay the toll

These were the days of broken wings

Overwhelmed with suffering

No longer thoughts of vanity

For I was in a state of insanity

 

What was once a fire of passion

Now only delivers in ration

For the fire of which we burned

Was only meant for him.

The lyrics rather deep but the rythm my dear was lacking in ingenuity and creativity. A poem is not just about the ryhme, don't force your creativity.

I agree with punk 301 you dont need to rhyme everything, especcially when it doesnt make sense or takes away from the poem

[DeathIsLove]

It's the first time I've ever written one that rhymed, and quite frankly if you know what the words mean, it makes perfect sense. It wasn't forced, it's just what came to mind. Happens when you spent like five minutes on it

 

However, I would to thank you for the input ^^

its good and I agree that rhyming isn't always necessary but its still a good poem ^-^
