In this lifeA Poem by Gerry Legisterpassing through this life with the silence we have scared memories,I
open the door into this life, The
chilling drought swept by, Like
a cherished blanket of cold fog, Cutting
career shape as dividing knife.
In
this life nothing is constant, The
past engulf the present scared and shy, The
path of weakness question our moral reply, To
be here among the fleeting moment.
Surpass
the night on shores of endless delight, During
the day I am in this life, Anguish
piercing the soul with unending grief, Waking
up to dry my bereave heart.
In
this life with silence we have scared memories, I
live to lay awake turning pass my youthful hue, Of
sinful deeds I once in rapture knew, To
feel the flame of the sun burn in guilty tears,
Exposed
bravery twisted and fled, Melting
bliss elusively wilted and procrastinates Survival
found existence more obstinate, Making
friends with the living and the dead.
In
this life my heart is stirred to a burning flame, Cocoon
in an earthen cradle, Hiding
the masquerades of existence in confine stable Endeavoring
to see new opportunities begin.
A
process aching to proclaim life, Emotions
humming discreetly, Twitching
and rocking indecisively, Proclaim
birth in other realm with grief.
Rage
crying out from deep within, Hope
stoop calling from the ragged floor, Brush
away dust and mildew ardor, To
proclaim a new beginning. © 2015 Gerry Legister |
