The Tragedy of a Lonely nightA Poem by En.KiYour 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. © 2011 En.Ki |
