Description
Echoes(24-02-11)
I am in this void...
A dark place,
With wild winds.
All I hear are
Those words,
That were said that day...
Words cannot hurt,
What isn't even there..
Words cannot blame,
Things which were never true.
Every minute of every day
They echo in my mind...
Like a repeating song,
Stabbing me in my heart
Over and over again...
We can choose which parts to remember,
Which parts to play over again and again.
Take control,
Choose the things you want said..
Choose the memory you want to play.
I know I should let it go,
But I can't!!
For what if there are some truth
to those hateful words,
That seem to haunt me
To no end.
Look deep inside you,
Search for the answers you seek.
For only you know what resides under every rock,
Behind every wall...
Over and over they play in my mind,
Like a long lost melody from another time,
I lose myself in the words that play,
Making me want to turn to the blade.
'From another time'
Hold on to that...
It is another time,
A past that is no longer,
A memory that is faded,
A life that changed.
Yet the memory is fresh
And still is there..
Like a wound that can't heal
Staying open and bare...
Wounds take time to heal,
Depending on its depth
And on everything else.
I want it to stop!
I want it to end!
I want to silence the words that float through
My mind...
Ending this echoing
For all time!!

I love the contrast between wanting pain to end immediately and accepting that it will take time, good work!

Ocean of emotions
Swirling all around
Fighting for control
A balance until I heard that sound
A beautiful song that lulled me in
Tempting me with words
To grace my skin.
I fought so hard and for so long
Not wanting this dance
Nor this song
Yet something took over
That was not me
A inner angel that was so thirsty
I don't remember much after this
Only the beautiful carvings upon my skin
And a numbness inside me
Like a calming peace

The thirst and the hunger...
The temptation and the call...
They are so difficult to ignore.
Sounds so melodic,
That your hands just move,
With that sound in your head.

I am sorry the echoes became to much much.
Blood tears I have have shed and to silence
The tears within.
Not so deep the kiss of the skin
But enough to silence the noise within.

I liked how this one came out...
And the description of the dark void...
I just sent a note.

I fought the sirens call you see
Yet something took over me
Don't know how it happened
But it did
Lost to the song inside of me
As crimson tears bled steadily
I become aware of the deed
Yet have no worries because I am still here
I regained control of my red tears.

The sirens have a powerful voice,
Soundless....
Yet penetrate the thickest walls.
No amount of security,
Nor guard can block them.

since I have no control of my actions
I decided to ask vicki to let me link to a piece of hers
and did it anyway
if you are not happy I can remove the link.
see I did a pic and lately I have been connecting my artwork with written works
and since its a collabed thing I went and did this
[link]
oh and THANK YOU FOR EDITING MY SONG!

No don't remove
It is actually a really good picture,
I like that poems seem to inspire other forms of art
You're welcome

*A* so pretty... you don't know how much 'echoes' I have in my mind. Some are my own words, some are others, but the hardest thing for me to do, is decipher if mine are right or false or are the other's right or wrong?
I am just a jumble of, recorded reverberations...
My screaming will only sink into, their sync.
- Chantings and drills - bounced and refracted...
So, is this my own?
My own, conscious compass,
was bombarded with foreign magnetism.
- So either, by call or direction - I am lost...
So, is this my way?
Stars gave no light,
nor was the moon, any bigger beckon of hope.
All paths than led, in split screen vision,
as a fly's compound eye, I was strayed -
in a multitude of perspectives -
fracturing my own reason!
I call this one "Conscious Confusion" thank you again.... bro and Darling
