soulful hymn...searching for the day

soulful hymn...searching for the day

A Poem by Shirlena

 

sad as not the only

stuck too long…under falls of livid temporary flight

gratitude to the clouds promising one day distant memorabilia

barely new to the ties of rabid division

not a passenger of this ride but a driver opting to request a seat

for solace of mind …a furious future less dubious

but don’t…keep on

 

living as if the glass is magenta encasing the sights

having to ramble through… it is screaming preservation

 deprive archives of a rich tapestry…then be pressing on your way

soon remember how it approached to confront you

 

keep on

 

being soiled among the very situation thought would be of rescue

names transform to conceal the faces

of the situation you thought would hold you…remember how far it was thought to be

things had come progressing but ebbing with waning love… hasn’t been so long ago

 

keep on stroking endless hindering mauve imaginations…unstable hue remaining the guide

target in barrage of the accused

infant crying

are you victim

are you murmuring

are you moaner

 

no… you are mourner of all due sacrifices

seldom seeing understanding

life with consistency low signifying this astronomical field

it is just so

 

 

lonely shades reaching for the conclusion

from the way times keep on

You're welcome my friend
What a lovely vocabulary you have, I especially liked the piece before and including the words 'keep on'. It has a savior-martyr tone that I can't quite place that is exceedingly interesting. You have a very piscean lyrical strain in the way you write which gives quite a few unexpected moments. I hope you put a few of your poems in the 5th week of the Festival:

Deep and spiritual! I can hear the strength and weakness that abounds the broken spirit in this piece! Much love!
