Dead WomanA Poem by SWANNCommand thou love a mystery Regardless of the history For thou shall rain, and love will
remain But the ocean is deeper, it pops
through her vain.
The ocean is freedom, as it is so
mystique But her veins still shiver from the thought
of what may lay beneath. Those sparkly eyes, drop tears on her
breasts. She never, ever thought of death.
It was to be expected, bad news arrive
fast. I knew of her drowning, before she even
left the house. I clutched to her tightly, before she
forever left But nothing could stop a dreaming introvert.
Beauty has so many faces; it even lays
them on the dead. A beautiful young woman, lifeless lying
in the hospital bed. Not even the violet glaze of her lips
could distract from her physique I fell in love with her again, with her
cold and naked skin.
Sad though, never again did I dream Every time I closed my eyes, I felt
like she was telling me "I gave my life to the ocean, so
find me there, find me there…" But I knew I couldn't. Unlike her, I
have thought of death.
Men always knew that women could drive
them mad. But it wasn't her death; it was her beauty
that made my mind collapse. I came to the ocean, as gloom as the
storm I opened my arms, and wished to be
torn.
I closed my eyes, and my darling
appeared So pretty, and ready to take me, she
whispered "Oh darling, love doesn't die with
people, oh darling, you must understand, If you come with me now, your head will
clear, if not, you'll forever wish to be dead."
Her sweet murmur, the smell of the
salty wind All got to me. I couldn't breath. I stepped towards the edge of sand My mind was clear. To her I bowed. © 2016 SWANN |
