Portent FallA Poem by Brandon M. WhittakerI felt very very poetic today, I'm not sure why, but I feel like I should be writing poetry so here we go.Thine is just a soul Searching for lost meaning In the lies of life and death The significance of the dance Of death Rides on my shoulders Just like a muse In time A fucked tragedy that will combine The lives of a hundred fates Looming over thee With smile of deception Portents of rifts in the mind The heart The tragic song of a dying tradition The lies The secret The lives of those who cared For the guise That led us all to believe We weren't alive But we kept on living this time As if nothing was wrong Nothing could ever break free From the protection we thought we had The walls have crumbled Beneath The barrage of insecurity That defiles the heart and the soul That leaves us all behind To die... © 2008 Brandon M.
