RAYAN
Limitations
My worlds sinking at the bottom of pain,
Filled with all the happy moments my life has had to sustain,
Broken souls and broken dream that I taught how to entertain.
Oh! With what unspeakable anguish
Do I regret the vocation
I came so close
And so oft to having
The sweet acclamation
That might have been mine.
Had I tried and failed,
God is cruel, putting me and my emotions here with you.
I am the failing punch-line of an unheard joke
You are a center stage comedian
Sometimes life is hard.
The thrilling twists and turns we face,
are often more than one can take.
Like Atlus and the earth,
we hold our burdens on our back and pray for balance.
Throughout life, there are those too important to let go.
But no matter how hard anyone holds on,
We'll all end up gone;
There's a close to every show.
You were precious in every sense of the word.
I could see that pain and hatred in your eyes
The moment she spurned you as childish and unwise.
I know how it feels to be scorned and chastised.
I know how it feels to go against those baptized.
Little girl, now don't be sad,
I understand your pain,
How you feel there's no way out,
That you have gone insane.
She has decided to walk away
Because, you did not treat her right
Nothing but a chaotic scene
Situations sadly, ended in a fuss or fight
Face the reality of the matter
She often drowned in tears
Why can't I just be a bird,
that reaches up to the sky looking down at all the views and always free to fly?
Why can't I just be the sun,
This transcendental sea
Stretched in miles destiny,
Precincts an outline of hope-
Moreover, anguish.
As all horizons seem to be
Dense in fate of sky and sea.
When she is gone
There will be nothing for you to say
Let's face it
You did not appreciate her anyway
You used and abused her
And played with her heart
Nothing but an acrimonious scene
You were never there
Nothing but pure neglect
A child was born
A moment that you seem to forget
Nothing but a dark cloud
Bitterness sadly rears its ugly head
Just take accountability
Girl, what happened to us?
Conversation has sadly ran dry
This has become a masquerade
Time continues to pass us by
If we do not communicate
Darkness will appear
Of a melancholy nature
Tears fall from her face
That is ever so clear
You did not treat her right
You were insincere
You messed with her heart
And played with her mind
Nothing but an insolent demeanor
So degrading and unkind
You have to continue on
Even though you have lost a loved one
Remember the good times you had with your mother
She taught you how to be strong
She is still there to guide you
It has been sixteen years
Since that dark day
Our nation was under attack
Total chaos in every way
Three thousand people sadly perished
Nothing but pure frustration
Along with sullen moments
From being
a book
once sealed shut,
now open
and exposed.
With problems I fought
to be forgot,
on pages
that can't be closed.
It will be okay—
"Listen, listen
Do you hear
The peircing scream
Through the atmostphere
Listen, listen
Do you hear
Those long, long screams
Of pain and fear
Listen, listen
Do you hear
Fire is my force
I am in beautiful
Anguish
Darling, my whole heart loves you
Garden flowers die
But not those who lie sacred
I remember the swell of the blood red buds,
spread in delight, whetted with my kiss.
Your rose lips unfurled,
framed in the flowerbed of first love
when you planted butterflies on my collarbone.
Why do i love him
being around him only makes me grim
I have loved him through the ins and outs of time
I love him to the point it's a crime
He's the orange juice I'm the syrup
we are the worlds tomorrow
we are the new generation
we are the future
than why are we so reluctant
to see the necessity of life
we lead our lives
according to hashtags and social media
I kiss the lips of tragedy
Sin is my close companion
I lie and wait for lying things
That lie down and seduce me
What power do my actions hold?
Or more the power of my inactions?
You’re crying and you’re heaving
As pain rips you apart
And I can’t help thinking
Of how you do have a strong heart
Tears are gushing from your eyes
Filled with so much pain and anguish
It's bursting out!
This little beast
Of joy and pain -
My fingers crave
To only carve
And carve away,
At the chips of reality
Before my gazing eye.
