The Icy BurialA Poem by Bobby MaddenWritten on 11/6/08.
Impossible, false, and unreal. Oh my once loving wife, what have you become?
A blizzard, burying the Fairy of the past under impenetrable snow Endless sharp needles of cold cling to my skin, seep through my bones, and freeze my heart The love and warmth of your heart mysteriously disappeared a long time ago The agonizing anguish you cause me is by all means immeasurable The depths of the scars that have been permanently carved inside me are bottomless When I unintentionally inflict you with merely a speck of the pain You blindly see my heart in mint condition as intolerance breeds selfishness Two years of living in a realm of our love disposed of like yesterday's trash Greater ambitions in pursuit, such as seeking high appealing exterior Stupidity, corruption, and cowardice chosen over purity Unrest rises over ruins of happiness and neglected interior I watch you become faithless and unfaithful as I decompose and decay For how much longer will you attempt to prevent and circumvent our destiny? Your intentions are in direct contrast to what your heart truly desires That which is important to you has been crushed by contagious imbecility A great deal of changes has occurred since contamination began to spread Far distances have been crossed beyond the lost mark of where you were first lead astray No matter how far you travel down a path, you are always free to turn back Within the darkened maze, allow me to be the light that will help you find your way Everyone I know strongly recommends that I let you go and move on Find another female to replace you, become my new home, family, and best friend Maybe you could obliterate what you called love and maybe they could have too But I am here to prove that true love is eternal and impossible to end Do not let eighteen months of sunlit love be devoured by this avalanche We belong together, with no one else, until we die, and you know it is true A life without you is but an empty life, a wasted life, no life at all If we can't make it, what hope is there for the rest of the world? Can't answer, can you? © 2014 Bobby MaddenReviews
