Fallen

by End Of Eternity   Jun 8, 2009


Lush garden behind the church
Moonlight ensures every move made
Echoing thoughts of consequences
Once again the voice within fades

Memories wrapped in needles
Like my golden wedding ring
Box with collection of tears
Safely in hands of suffering

Surrendering religion with shame
Digging deep as if for treasure
Hiding my thoughts down below
Falling in the name of pleasure

Serpents won't starve tonight
As its time to wait for rain
Nightmares don't come to dead
Finally church consumes my pain

    I think I may have read this piece in a different way than was intended which, I think it good because it is ambiguous and not so blatant. I particularly like the word choice, that you have used 'common' language/words and worked to entwine them to create a poetic piece.

    A deep poem, lol. To me the imagery and choice of words really conveyed a deep sadness within the heart of this poem. A powerful write.

    Well, I enjoyed it so much! We keep falling in the name of pleasure. It's so true! I really wonder how long we will be?
