The One Hundred Poem Promise
Famous pain
Enthralled,
I Torture
Myself
Over
And Over
Again
With
Thoughts
Of
You.
They Go Nowhere.
Mean Nothing.
And No One Hears Them
But Me.
Yet They Sing
Such A Pretty Song
Of Destruction.
You Can Hear The Beats,
Bounce Around My Soul
Where The War Rages On.
I Try To Regain
Some Semblance
Of Control.
Because I Know
This Life
Is My Last One,
The Last Time I Will Be
Reborn.
So I Wanted To Pull
You Close;
This Time Our Love
Would Be Shown.
Instead I Sit Under
This Star Lit Sky,
Alone,
Listening To The Song
Of Us:
Being Destroyed In The War
Of My Soul.
