Gentle Sways

I break and rhythmically-gently I sway,
These closing eyes hope for another day.

The taste of coffee in my lips
Reminds me of that hateful kiss.
But I gaze towards the sky,
And deep within, I sigh.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

A pounding head engraves on my brain,
As flying subjects give me migraines.

The result of a complicated equation,
Involves the messy transformation,
Of nerve cells subjected to deforestation
Divided by an inexplicable deformation.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

My eyelids hover around burning acid,
As falling tears are classified as passive.

I view a black withered rose
Lying behind a pinkish pose.
I assume this is what I chose
After all, one reaps what one sows.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

Another day, Another Day,
Rhythmically-gently I sway.

Pink Floyd whispers in the Background,
To shy hearts that deny their own crown

Surprisingly, my heart quickens,
My God this is something wicked.
I question as my blood thickens,
And a tear thinks of what it misses.

I break and rhythmically-gently I sway,
These closing eyes hope for another day.

    Thank you for your entry in our contest with your beautiful song, but I'm afraid we are looking for poems with rhyme and flow and this does not fit the criteria.
    Thanks again...Sue and Jeff

    Interesting write ...

    and nicely done. You have a typo though:

    After all, one reaps what it sows. (one reaps what one sows)

    can't be it, since you're speaking of a person.

    Anyway, good job, all in all.
