-----------POEM:1----------- The poem expresses deep sorrow and guilt over a past mistake that caused loss or separation. The speaker feels trapped in a dark, lonely space, haunted by memories of someone they loved who is no longer there. They long for forgiveness and atonement but are overwhelmed by the pain and loneliness. The heartbeat and silence symbolize the speaker's isolation, and the haunting presence of their guilt lingers endlessly, leaving the speaker to wish for an end to their suffering.... -----------POEM:2------------ This poem is made by imagining about a king and his marriage ceremony. When an enemy attacked his kingdom during his marriage,killing him and his wife. During his last moments he regretted his past as he watched his Altar(the sacred place) also the marriage decorations, and his dream burn. As he was crawling to his wife, the grim reaper was following him it suggests us that the king was slowly dying. The lifeless body of his queen with her beautiful gown that was soaked with blood made his heart ache. He touched her for the last time. He couldn't breathe because of the pain. The king saw his subjects back full of lashes(sword cuts). The screams of their pain and resentment. The smell of the burning bodies and the blossom of ashes. The weight of guilt or the burden made the king regretted his prideful conquest. At the end the King is glad that during their last moment they were together at the end.

[BLURB] "Well, now I'm back and I'm gonna drag you to court, you piece of shite," she said before passing a humorless chortle. "Do that and you're doomed." He sniggered, his manevolent gaze hurling obscenities towards her. "Oh yeah? How?" She rose a perfect eyebrow, animosity etched on each lineament. "Let's just say, I have something of yours that'll destroy you." The telltale monstrosity perceptible in his evil kingdom of eyes set a havoc inside her adrenaline rushing body but she held her grounds strong. "And what's that?" And there he showed her something that choked the life out of her frail body as she lost her balance in dizziness. ****** Love is elusive but sometimes it knocks right at your door but you're too arrogant to pay it any heed or maybe too scared to acknowledge it. Either way, destiny always knows how to play its part well. You can ignore it but can never run away from it. It never lets you evade itself and follows you everywhere, like a shadow. Crooning and spreading its arms right open at you, enveloping you from every nook, cajoling you, brandishing your tattered soul, and enticing you to the point where you have to surrender and accept it. Where you have to hold on to it and let everything else go. Because sometimes all a ragged soul and a chasm heart need is a pint of love. The tale of two youngsters who kept finding their way towards each other no matter how hard they tried to ignore it. Life would always collide their paths. Always making up their minds to never see each other again to always bumping on each other, destiny already had something else in store for them. So what was it? A journey of loathing to love. A journey of holding on and letting go.
