Brief Candle

 

 

Dehydrating from the lack of breath;
my worth is an open book of regrets.
From life to idle mind of memories beaten;
stain resedue eating out my flesh.

In this crisscross epitaph, memories well fade into ash.
Where I plummeted upon rice strewn paths,
from bright light to darkness; it doesn't hurt to die.

Stone upon stone, lock inside of my own tomb;
my spirit is parched and life is in decay,
with dreams crumbled and energy stifled;
despair lies heavily upon my soul.

When one’s heart frails, it becomes even harder to exhale
Real love is neither weak nor masculine… well; I digress.
When the world ostracizes one, there’s no place left to dwell
but inside of a confine solitary cell, stark and depressed.

Our lives go as far as our breath.
The soul pours out from life's cup
spilling out the juice of the heart
The stain residue is left behind
displaying of what once was...

A
spirit
drifted

away...

    Predictable title. In the 2nd stanza, do you mean memories will fade (not well)? 3rd stanza, lock should be locked. 4th stanza, frails? Do you mean fails. You have been rewarded many times for a good poem that could still use some work. I was looking for newer, fresher work. Thanks for entering.

    I think in the first stanza you have a typo of the word "residues" (you have "resedues"), and there are a couple of places where the tense seems to be a little off? Other than that this is an emotive poem and I liked the word choices that you used for the imagery that you have crafted congratulations on all the trophies this has won!

    this was amazing just really throws into a dark yet beautiful poem the stanza:
    Stone upon stone, lock inside of my own tomb;
    my spirit is parched and life is in decay,
    with dreams crumbled and energy stifled;
    despair lies heavily upon my soul.

    This is a wonderful poem, but there are a couple of spots that I need clearing up:

    line 4: I was not able to find resedues in the dictionary and I do not know that word. Is it a typo? If not can you please let me know what it means?

    line 8: should be locked

    line 12: I'm not sure if you meant "when one's heart is frail", or if you meant "when one's heart fails", but the way it is now is not correct.

    Line 19 leads me to believe you meant residue in line 4

    Other than those this is a wonderful poem, love the message and tone. It is very deserving of all the trophies it has won. Thank you for entering the contest, good luck.

    So sad is this write

    Our own minds through our everyday life often can be our own prison .Through thoughts of the past blocking the thoughts of what could be leaves a person frozen in time . If one is feeling lost and feeling sorrow for their past actions then you must know that no matter how deep the cut may be you can move forward and find that peace you still carry within.You just have to let your mind move past the time lost and gain the time at hand and bring light back be that person you so want to be and in doing so no one yesterday will ever haunt you again

    Congratulations on all the Shiny Trophys!

    This whole poem is so beautiful, yet sad and melancholy, especially this stanza:

    "Our lives go as far as our breath.
    The soul pours out from life's cup
    spilling out the juice of the heart
    The stain residue is left behind
    displaying of what once was..."

    There, I could feel the mortal depression pouring from its broken heart and soul, and again in these last four poignant lines:

    "A
    spirit
    drifted

    away..."

    Very well done, and worthy of all the brilliant, hard won awards... Wishing all the very best to you. Peace Always, Cyn

    Wow. This is really good. I'm very impressed. Now then. You don't have a very solid rhyme scheme. It would be a lot easier on the readers if you could esablish one (havin the same number of lines in every stanza instead of having some with more or less than the others might help with that). On the positive side I really like your wording in the poem. It's intriguing and compells me to read more. Thank you for entering this. It's a great addition to my contest.

    I am going through your poetry trying to find a poem I have not commented on its hard to, but then I am also going back and reading my old comments. I remember after I read this what I wrote and exactly what you said in response you all said I made your day.
    There is so much love you have in your soul why you haven't found the right person for you yet I don't know, but what I was always told is that God molds you and you have experiences so that when your different purposes in life come along if you let God do what he is trying to do you will be strong enough to accomplish what you are meant to accomplish. Even little accomplishments are great things. Its hard to communicate with you the way I do because you don't see me crying the entire time I am writing this comment.
    Right now you are looking for your soulmate and whoever God has made to be your soulmate will see you as a very strong individual when the time is right and everything will just fall into place as it should really no matter what. You will find someone to accept all your faults because we all have them.
    I have a poem called weeds I really wrote a while ago and updated it, but back when I was dating I felt like I was hitting walls with people for one reason or another no matter how close I became the door was slammed shut in my face.

    As for you you seem to be hitting walls just like I did with people for various reasons. I have heard the saying if God shuts a door don't force it open accept whereever it is God leads you. Keep the door closed and keep walking. He may reopen the door. open the window or open a new door accept these things. Now not all of life is cut and dry sometimes we have to make decisions we make right decisions and wrong decisions, but we learn from decisions and move on. I am grateful that you are my friend because when I needed someone like you to be my friend God put you right in my path.
    its hard to tell you what I am thinking and feeling through the short lines we say sometimes I just needed to tell you somehow.
    The right woman will come along when you are least expecting it. Whomever she is she will truely be your other half and the best things come to those who wait. For example the cook who takes his time to make a meal turns out making it gourmet while the hurried rush makes whatever. You want a gourmet meal.

    I think that is all I have to say for now.
    Take care,

    MJ

    This was so absolutely amazing! I know it isn't the most sophisticated way to start off commenting such a poem, but...really, I ...am not that sophisticated either-so there we go. You know, although it was written in Free-Verse (it had its rhyming bits)... I will have to say I was truly and deeply impressed. Because, while liking rhyme, I couldn't NOT see the message beyond the lines, which was a very powerful, deep one. I especially liked the last stanza ( which I see others have liked too):
    "Our lives go as far as our breath.
    The soul pours out from life's cup
    spilling out the juice of the heart
    The stain residue is left behind
    displaying of what once was...

    A
    spirit
    drifted

    away..."
    The way you structured it (center-fitted, and the line size, and spaces between the lines) actually suggest the spirit drifting away. In a way, this poem ( I think!) represents the explanation of Paranormal phenomenons. Ignoring the spirits, pretending they have no life, letting them drift away with no (or barely any) remorse, we're making them angry. We open the "Book of Regrets" they've been keeping closed, and enrage them - I think you know what happens next; Hauntings, and so on.
    Thank you so much for this delightful, meaningful read, and I apologize in advance for having bored you to death with my rambling. LOL!

    Well, you think you have entered this into enough contests?
    Lol, I'm just being mean. But the first stanza turned me off a little bit, it seemed a bit sing-songy to me. I do like the images you portrayed in your hopelessness, however. And this stanza:
    In this crisscross epitaph, memories well fade into ash.
    Where I plummeted upon rice strewn paths,
    from bright light to darkness; it really hurts to die.

    The 'it really hurts to die', just seems to be thrown in there... everything in this poem is so descriptive and then I got to that and it seemed to me to stick out like a sore thumb.


    But, good luck in ALL the contests you've entered.

    It's very well written, the emotion is so powerful.
    You did a darn good job.

    WOW! this is a dark and sad poem. The flow is excellent. You can feel your emotions spill out with every line you read.

    Stone upon stone, lock inside of my own tomb;
    my spirit is parched and life is in decay,
    with dreams crumbled and energy stifled;
    despair lies heavily upon my soul.

    Loved it!

    Thank you for entering and good luck in my contest

    Your words here are sad and dark. Anyone can feel the emotions that are packed here between the lines. You certainly have reached deep and exposed the pain within for this piece. Thank you for entering. Best of luck to you!

    I'm sorry you feel so miserable and helpless and how death really is your personification. I guess I was like that in October/early November time, I really was a nightmare. Nobody wanted to be around me. Sorry you feel so miserable, loved the expressions you used to express this though.

    There is quite some imagery captured inside this poem and I really like that in written art actually
    The write itself has kind of a sad edge to it, but you did a good job penning this one down...
    Thank you for entering the contest with this poem as well!

    I love the last two lines
    (Life changes in the twinkling of an eye;
    our reflections together vanish into the twilight mist.)
    they really finish the poem well
