When living your life
Like an arrow in flight
You must always accept
That the end is in sight;
Be grateful at least
For the fact that you knew
You came to death -
Death did not come for you.
You are like targets
Who sit and await -
Patiently suffer
The arrows of fate,
Saying "I am but mortal
And destined to die -
I can change nothing
So why should I try?"
Each morning you wake
Is an 'ember day' dawning,
Your penance for living
In permanent mourning.
By erst while ideals
Your hearts are enslaved,
You crawl out of the cradle
Straight into the grave.
What reward is a banquet
Of red wine and bread,
When you hunger for life -
But on death you are fed? --Sabbat

SorrowfulSong on May 15, 2005I finally did the task that wasn't easy...I broke away from him, and while I now feel more "fucked up" it's a better "fucked up" than before...I hope you remember who I am...you commented on my poem Paradox, and I'm just responding...
