Tattooed Soul

A Poem by Krutika
"

Tribute to Chester Bennington #LinkinPark

"
And here I recollect
the past, spent
building you up,
putting together, adding up
colored bits and pieces,
jagged and rough
none out of thin air, no
but from deep within my soul,
glossing it up, with
my hopes and aspirations,
my sorrow and frustration
Just a mirage,
sparkling on the horizon
Though it was you who
lend this fickle illusion
your words, your voice
and your Name..
Carving it's existence!

Now that you reclaim your Name
Leaving it to disperse in thin air
Broken shards, flying back to me
a reflecting kaleidoscope
Of your words and voice
a perpetual tattoo
engraved on my soul!

Author's Note

Krutika
There are times when certain people leave strong impressions
irrespective of time and distance.
It's lasting especially when they are made at a very young age.

Impressions maybe a painful experience though help in shaping the very character of a person.

Thank you Chester! #LinkinPark

A fine tribute to one who has made an impression on your life and been a source of personal inspiration.

I agree with your author's note. We all have people we admire for their talents regardless of the distance in between. And it is a soft sadness that we feel when they are no longer around to inspire.

A very nice piece, Krutika. Smile for the moments of joy you received.
