Chereads / And I Speak. / Chapter 12 - Ramblings

Chapter 12 - Ramblings

What shines against the pale blue sky?

So deep, so violent, so unknown

Doth shines within a distant land

So rigid, as constant as a midnight moan

What seeks bewilderment, yet faint at heart?

To live, to love, to lie, to die?

That sits under the heat of the sky's eye

That cries with words that moans a sigh

A pause, a break, a clause in the norm

The end, the coming, the new beginning

A regret, a word left unspoken

A moment left with no meaning; hanging

And so the mask beguiles reality

The tears of a moment; forgotten, wasted

Under the scrutiny of a beloved one

Love entrusted, cut down; denominated

*******

Does it hurt? Yes it does.

But will I do anything about it? No.

Then they would ask me why, or why not

And then I'll smile and say

"I deserved it. I always did."
