UNRAVEL

This is a translation of my favorite anime opening - Tokyo ghoul unravel

Oh, can you tell me, can you tell me the way the story ends?
A monster in my heart
A ghost inside my chest
I'm broken down, the world around us
Surround my suffering
You smile and laugh at me
But you don't see a thing

Damaged and broken as I am
I'm trying not to breathe
Unraveled, I'm not unraveled by
The truth I finally see, freeze

I'm breakable, unbreakable
I'm shakeable, unshakeable
Unraveling since I found you

And now I'm turning to dust in a world that's twisted
Don't come searching when I go missing
Close your eyes or just try to look away
Don't want to hurt you
We live in a world someone else imagined
The ghost of what's left of me all but vanished
Remember my heart, how bright I used to shine

Entangled in the loneliness
The memory of innocence
It's stinging me, it's breaking me
The pain is spreading endlessly
I cannot move, I close my eyes
I try to breathe, I realize -
I'm paralyzed, I'm paralyzed
UNRAVEL THE WORLD

I'm not what I was then
Don't touch the infection
Entwined we will both die
So stay away, and stay alive
I'm breakable, unbreakable
I'm shakeable, unshakeable
Unraveling, I won't infect you!

Please, just don't forget me...
Just don't forget me
Just don't forget me
Just don't forget me
Don't forget me

We live in a world someone else imagined
The ghost of what's left of me all but vanished
Remember my heart, how bright I used to shine

Oh, can you tell me?
Oh, can you tell me?
A monster in my heart
And now there's nothing left

[John the Baptist]

Sounds like the speaker is conflicted by the attraction to the addressee. Perhaps there is the fear of being hurt, perhaps that of engulfment. Either way, the resultant anxiety seems beyond bearing.

[Coyote Poetry]

Wonderful story told in the poetry. You made the reader feel the struggle leading to a honest ending. Thank you Raghib for sharing the powerful poetry.

[Norbanus]

It happens in these tales relayed in verse,
that one reveals imagination wild.
The poet lays out fears broad and diverse,
then nurtures them to life much like a child

With tenderness, he mends the broken thoughts,
while unaware at all of what he's done.
As days turn into weeks illusion wrought
Bring grief and doubts of what he’s won.

At last exhaustion from the futile task,
wins all and he must sit to take a rest.
'I've built a mighty wall of fear bask
in doubts and in my vanished try for best.’

I know now, I’ve unraveled (doom is set).
Then conscience smirks and says 'You wanta bet?'

[Raghib]

Conscience is something that contradicts everything that goes inside one's head .
The wall of fear one day might crumble . but I will surely enjoy those moments of solitude andearn from it .
Thank you for the poem of yours . It was great!!

[wordman]

i enjoyed your story,i think many of us can relate to it

[Raghib]

You can relate to it the most . Wordman !!

[wordman]

you must know my dark secrets

[Raghib]

I just read some of your poems and guessed from it !

[Mikku]

One of the nicest piece of work....loved that part.. "I won't infect you"..it is like hurting yourself just to save your beloved..

[Raghib]

Yes exactly !!

[anonymous_at]

I love dark poems ..... and idk why but I just find something like peace when I read them.....thanks for putting up one ...

[Raghib]

I can totally relate to everything you say . Darkness has a calmness that some people are aware of . And yes in my country also people think anime is childish . Btw where are you from ?

[anonymous_at]

I'm from India and where r u from??
BTW same goes for my country .... there's hardly anyone who understands the difference between cartoons and animes!!

[Najam Us Saher]

Painful, It effects me so much when I read such heart touching words of restlessness.

[Raghib]

You should really try to listen to this song then . Hear Unravel by Jonathan young (Tokyo ghoul)

[Najam Us Saher]

Okay. I'll.

[Stephanie M]

What anime is this from? I think my favorite anime is" Sword Art Online." Are you familiar with it?

[anonymous_at]

my favourite anime is "Naruto" and few more..... it's great to see that there are few people out there who love anime....'cause here in my state everybody finds it childish which i hate...

[Raghib]

Sorry i was a little busy lately . This one's from Tokyo ghoul . If you are an anime lover then this a muat watch for you .

[Raghib]

Yes I have seen SAO . But its not in my favourites list . The anime started out well but I didnt like the ending too much

[Stephanie M]

Amazing. I can sense the feelings of agony, and heartbreak of someone trying to push their true love away, not because they want to, but for their own good.

[Raghib]

Yes exactly !

[A.Tarek]

Finally know what they were singing.. hhhh
Like it
But, Still heart broken from the ending of the anime

[Raghib]

Well they are gonna have a s3 coning . The manga is out but even the manga's full version isnt yet released . There are speculations that s3 will come around in this year . Cant wait !!
