Of Woe (Tell me!)

A/N: SOOO it's been a long time since I've been here and admittedly, I haven't done any writing since my hiatus and this poem has actually been collecting dust ever since the first THOR movie came up and I just wanted to share it - albeit a bit belatedly. I do hope I can finish my other story though *sigh*

Enjoy~

Of Woe (Tell Me!)

I

I believed I was part of the most wonderful things

That made the hearth glow which happiness brings

Didn't know I'd be tied up and burned like a pile of strings

Tell me, am I still part of the most wonderful things?

II

I'm pained; I'm wounded and can't be healed

I'm alone and sad, these nightmares I wield

The coldness and darkness are the ones I build

Tell me, am I worth to be saved by your shield?

III

You almost made me believe and gave me hope

That I can stand on myself from a tiny rope

But the insanity and illusions I cannot cope

Tell me, do you still believe I have the tiniest hope?

IV

I am not myself from day and night

My mind almost fades and I grip on it tight

I wake up and sleep; I die and live in bright white light

Tell me, what do you think is wrong and right?

V

I vanished and turned to smoke in this eerie place

The people I have hurt I cannot face

No shadows or footprints to be traced

Tell me, have I lost myself in an unending maze?

VI

I see a glow, it seems familiar, is it truth?

I have never seen something so beautiful in my youth

I look at myself again, the feeling of being uncouth

Tell me, do you agree that an eye is for an eye and a tooth is for a tooth?
