Original Poetry that came to me today. Its an intermittent feeling that I have been battling with for some time now, but hopefully by writing it down, I can make some forward movement.
When the world ends...by PMarie
Long ago I wrote these words
And part of me still feels the connection
Once upon a time these words were the only echo of my faintly beating heart
Once upon a time I believed in the fairytale
"When the world ends, my heart will remain with you"
My heart reached out, eagerly looking for something to grasp
My body, broken, tattered, in ruins from nights of no sleep
My lungs, gasping for air, having screamed time and time again "Lord, WHY?!!?"
My mind, blackened by the stinging punch of your uncouth ways.
"When the world ends, my heart will remain with you"
Reverberations in my chest like the soulful songs of the afflicted
Repeating over and over again as if it were trying to convince me
Convince me of all that I have been trying to ignore
The pulse of my veins powered by the memory of you,
the memory of me, of what could have been.
"When the world ends, my heart will remain with you"
And within a small piece of myself, a part of you will always stay.
