lately, you've been slippin'
from the crevices
of my fragile fingers
like transparent water
and all I've done is
to look at you helplessly
because I can't hold it
the fluid, that you are
oh why did you have to come
to be the cause of this mayhem
in the silence of my eternal sea
for i'm goin' wild inside of me
i can't breathe in this chaos
that never tends to fade away
for you are everything
to my deep 'nothing'
but i've tried so hard
to search you in everything
only to find 'nothingness'
in nothing but nothing
darlin'...
were we residing in a fantasy
that's blurred with the passage
of every moment
only to leave me in an
imaginary 'antlantis',
the tracks upon which
are unknown to me
just as i am unknown
to your soul so free...
please i'm choking on it
the density of your absence
that rushes upon me
every second of the day
like unforgivin' tides
raised up by the pull of a
nocturnal full moon
that wishes to deprive me
of the last trace
of my faltering sanity
to leave me at the brink
of sericeous insanity
that's gonna deceive me soon
in the bright light of noon
for deception's not checked
by any moment of time
oh how i wish to write
about the fog on my glasses
that's painted in front of my eyes
due to the whisp of steam
rising from a hot cup of coffee
but, anyhow, i end up thinking
about the gone days
and this eternal sea
under which you've left me
with a heart set on fire
baby, please come back
don't you feel pity for me?
for i really need to see
beyond this confusing fog
tainting my spectacles
oh cannot you see?
i desperately want you to come
for i'm utterly lost in this
hopelessly faded bedlam
Author's Note
Listening to 'Faded-KDS edits' as reflected by my poem. *-*
Bedlam is pronounced as 'bedlem'. It means 'a state or scene of confusion'. I kind of like this word.. ❤
This is the first time I've tried this. Is it free verse? Idk what it is. It rhymes at some points. It's...well, it's some poetry. :P
Kindly leave your feedback regarding it. Should I try doing it again or not? :)
Much love,
Hazel ^-^
