Sensations Fade to Black

hm the hardest poem contest god damn

 

 Shame, the wind is summoning, pulling at my heart.

For at this very moment, it does steal my breath.

I feel only pain; scattering my soul apart.

Who knew my dear that we would soon end here in death?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Name the only piece of me that can't see the light.

Blind I am to ev'rything; woe there's nothing now.

Finding little comfort within this starry night.

Useless in my battle, I'll never break my vow.

Bite my tongue for wanting you; Sugar and the spice.

Bitter as my solitude lulling me to sleep.

How can I make the bargain and not pay the price?

Satisfying inner dreams; what am I to reap?

Spite my dignity to keep, voices in my head.

Lullabies so cordially; volume deficit.

Listening again I note what I seem to dread.

Uncertainty, my love, I hope not to forget.

Oh sweetest rainstorm in the clouds ushering peace.

Salty air of ocean breeze a deep breath to take.

Oh a scent so sweet that I could not yet release.

And you so far from me so many steps to make.

Low I feel everything dissolving from my fate.

Somewhere inside the psyche I loose touch.

Instinctive intuition, here I dissipate.

Feeling I know everything or maybe too much.

Savoring the moment as there will be no more .

Numb to pain I become, peace like never before.

Your love is everlasting as I grow so sore.

I'm glad you came to save me my cure, I adore.

Yet morning fades away into the longest night.

Love is warm i know this, and yet I can't ignite. 

Author's Note

*to contest judge person* i wasn't sure what you meant by long short vowel sound if you wanted on or the other only or alternating or what that meant so i just ignored it if this isn't right then i'll try to fix it
