Broken Shards Of A Lost Soul

by enigmatic_prey   Aug 22, 2008


A forsaken, scathed soul
Heart in rupture beyond salvation
Lost from this world falling into despair
Just waiting for herself be ensnared.

Hid behind a deceitful facade
Became a living masquerade.
The sole source of shame,
Unworthy to anyone's name.

Trying to keep up with this charade
Pretended she was never afraid.
Sadly, loneliness turned to stabs of pain
A feeling that can no longer be feigned.

Sick from those dulcet words of lies
From people's serpentine mouths
Slowly making the poor soul shatter,
Leaving those shards scattered.

Pawns of hell started to move
Doing their work: shards to be removed.
The lost soul now no longer exists.
Someone who would never be reminisced.

Look, how that pitiful soul ended up!
Nobody was there to make it stop.
Left her be in tranquil solitude
With hatred forever tattooed.

    This poem was beautifully written. I could really feel every word. My fav. part was-

    "Sick from those dulcet words of lies
    From people's serpentine mouths
    Slowly making the poor soul shatter,
    Leaving those shards scattered."

    For lack of a better word it was brilliant. You have talent indeed. You got my vote 5/5 definately.

    I'd go as far as to say this is mature beyond your years. I would also drop the "be" from the last line. Otherwise this is admirable!
