Everlasting

Superiors binding their spirit in shackles, Endeavoring to restrain their enemies obvious distinction

They observe with mouths taught to be closed
From the fear clutching their throat
Trembling at thoughts never to be exposed
Begging for someone to see the agony they plainly wrote

Missing pieces scattered among space
Too strewn apart to ever be discovered
Darkness closing in with a cold embrace
Suriving in a world to ruthless to even call a place

Passion told to be an unexpressed secret
A reckless way of speaking
Defined as the soul's most shameful weakness
A feeling dangerously misleading

Superiors binding their spirit in iron shackles
Endeavoring to restrain their enemies obvious distinction
Prepared for easy battle
Greedy men anticipating mass extinction

This war between the broken hearted and the egotistic
The cruel with sharp bloody tools
And honest with naked hands and contagious words
Only the good know who will leave with the jewels

Had to stop by this profile due to your username. I figured your writing would relate closely with your name, and it has. I've read a couple of your poems, and I would have to say this one is my favorite so far. Your rhyming is pretty good and it's not too wordy as to take away from the writing. Your imagery is very spot on here too. Very nice piece of writing. ~Never Forget

That's right only the good know who will leave with jewels. There is a cosmic breaking in every bound.
