Complex Simplicity

 




Bottling salty tears of pure and utter hatred
Mixing it with rage, a deadly combination
A shrapnel grenade lying in wait of detonation
Self destruction inevitable from self absorption




Repugnance of self created from liquefied anger hardened
Fear freezes the heart into an obsidian glacier numbing the soul
Eternally weeping invisible tears armed with a razor's edge
Repeatedly slicing the spirit leaving scars of humiliation




Innocence stripped at the hands of one of society's plagues
An incurable disease left to run rampant over the helpless
Vulnerable as it preys on the weak, devours the defenseless
Tainting the body, infecting the mind, scaring the soul




Living with haunting memories scratching at locked doors
Torturous screams bellow through hallowed halls of the mind
Keeping you lost in the limbo of the past, present and future
Making the simplicity of the truth to complex to adhere to

      My apologies

      My apologies but unfortunately due to the upgrade and the glitches still with posting and editing I cannot place a smiley in the box without it autimatically changing the font of my poem on me. I had recently gone into one of my own contests just to extend the closing date and it autimatically changed the font on me

      -sigh-

      So if you must remove me then do so, but again I apologize but having the font change I feel would take away some of the feel of my piece.


      Blessings

    Celtic Moon ~ brilliantly written! You had my attention from the first line through the last. It is intense and filled with emotion, superior word choice and visually outstanding. It pulls at the heart and can apply to so many. Really well done ~ Natasha

    wow Bel this is so very powerful and deep. The self-illumation that is shown in this piece is both admirable and something to be quite proud of. The path you traverse is a long windy bumpy one I am sure but one that has rewards well worth the trip great job!!
    love and light
