The Tragedy of a Lonely night

The Tragedy of a Lonely night

A Poem by En.Ki

Your words defy the wisdom

 

 

Imprinted on my brain

 

The countless foreign memories

 

The beating of the rain

 

Constantly we tremble 

 

Beyond our moments hush

 

Here we stand so silent 

 

Amidst the morning rush

 

 

But here we find the problem

 

The parody of it all

 

While I search for the beginning 

 

The end will never stall

 

Holding on is useless

 

When time steals all things

 

The memories your words beckon

 

Becoming so strained

 

 

Listening as to hear 

 

As my senses become drained

 

Struggling to feel this 

 

As we sit inside our rain

 

Blending in to nature 

 

Being out of sight

 

Buried are our consequences

 

We’ve left them for the night

 

We sail across these oceans 

 

Beyond what most can see

 

Through exchange of bitter words

 

We burn our candle light

 

Nothing seems to hold our key 

 

But we hold each other 

 

 

I was born with nimble hands

 

And brittle broken fingers

 

Solace slips between them 

 

And reaches for the trigger

 

If we find our comfort 

 

If we find our place to be

 

Born again we've become

 

Replacing both our keys

 

Locks now we burden 

 

Beyond our subtlety

 

 

Your words defy my wisdom

 

Imprinted on my brain

 

The countless foreign memories

 

The beating of the rain

 

Constantly we tremble 

 

Beyond our moments hush

 

Here we stand so silent 

 

Amidst the morning rush

 

 

Again I know I'll see you 

 

Though this night is not for us

 

When morning comes 

 

Our battles won

 

Another day goes by

 

As I lay asleep with you by my side.
