More Ramblings from my head

Rythm, beat and song

the rythm of my heart
the beat of the sacrifical drum
gives myself away
this place
this life
the scene is set
a momentous occasion
it all falls down

lub dub lub dub
can you hear me calling?

aching lungs
I am not breathing enough
this breakable body is yours
now and forever
i have no need
for these mortal shackles

I am still calling can you hear me?
lub dub lub dub

the of this small
heart is sung
just for you
waiting for you
beating for you

calling you
lub dub lub dub

a steady beat as i walk
towards to end
the drums let me know
my heart lets me know
what is coming
what is here
my final beat
it beats for you
it calls to you

I call for you

lub dub
....................will you answer?




and for your information- the actually sound that the heart makes is lub dub as the valves close in each side of the heart

I try to stop
to scream
I wait for my ride to stop
I wait for you
for you to tell me
it is all right
I can feel the utter chaos in this, and the panic of being unable to stop it. You've captured these feelings greatly.

Rhythm, Beat and Song was also very well-written. It's really unique and interesting, and I can also hear everything you've depicted.

ramblings #2~ IVORY TOWER

locked in an Ivory tower
pure, whole
untouched by emotions
almost not quite
statue still

flames burn at the edge
of my awareness
i can feel the rage
within me
it is me

Porcelian faced
perfect skin
a hollow heart
my flaws are within
the imperfection so raw

the fire burns
and all i touch
fades to ashes
scattered away
by my dismayed screaming

this nightmare will not end
my prince will not arrive
life in this tower continues
as i watch the world around falter

my flaw only weakens
my perfection only fades
the rage within continues to burn
as spidery scars form small cracks
on a once perfect surface
my soul my skin
my ivory tower
to hold me safe
to hold me away



im liking the wheat colour at the moment

steph and music box thanks again for taking the time to read.

I'm left amazed by this whole thing. You really know how to get your point across. I love how the tower is ivory instead of just white. You're so descriptive "as spidery scars form small cracks" I can see it happening. I just enjoyed reading it m'dear.

Invasion

I know it gets harder to breathe
I am happier this way
safe in my head
secure in my mind
life is easier to live
when watching with cynical eyes
than expressing emotions
if my heart were my guide
in rare moments
when i leave my safe confines
I am ripped apart by each beat
a sense of hope
of possibilities
torn by stronger feelings when i know
love is nothing more then a dream for me
my mind tells me so
better to believe it does not exist
than wait for something
that can only break me

but i let you get in
and now my seclusion
my haven is ruined
all i can think of is you
I try to see past your smiling face
put meanings to words you are yet to say
words that I long to hear
I cannot escape my image of you
invaded my space
I now wait for you
each breathe gets harder
my cynical eyes are growing heavy
you have invaded space
my mind no longer safe
security gone
you have taken over


music box thankyou again

discarded

mina thankyou...

I knew i was broken
when you tried to fix me
pulled me apart
re-stitched my seems
placed me in a wooden box
here i will stay til
you decide to return and play
but for now
you have turned your back
and walked away

have you won?
you tore my insides
to find no flaw
that you could fix
i am not your toy
for you to discard
when my shine wears off
no longer novel

you could not fix me
i wonder who that hurt me
you turned your back
you walked away
left me stiched and scared
there are more wounds
here then you could ever heal
