![]() Poetic DisappointmentA Poem by Jock Engelman![]() (original upload found here: http://truml.com/profile/poetry-detail/102897 )![]()
Oh how I love that feeling, deep inside;
Where all I want to do, is go and hide: Cause disappointment, scolds my soul within; I learnt to pretend, I don't have a heart; An act to cease, it being torn apart; As the emptiness, continues to form; silver drops fall from my eyes, you don't care; not from your perch, all of the way up there; Hunched over my vulnerability; A scarlet drop, lands on bleached white; Hey there, Mr. Grim, it has been a while; I didn't see you, shrouded in the mist; As I hold my last breath, I see my life; Soar past my vision, sharper than the knife; Familiar feelings, of pain and pleasure; This limerick is not suicidal; But poetic art of my survival; The everlasting struggle, this is LIFE; © 2012 Jock EngelmanAuthor's Note
