Tiny Little Fractures

by Lady Nik   Apr 1, 2011


One becomes a million
as the day melts away, like
crushed umber candle
wax, due to an overwhelming
uprising of rushing heat, all
causing an equilibrium within
the mind...

Temptation--
the sweetest of
all sins. Love the deadliest way
to live. Trapped in a labyrinth
of simple gestures mixed with
blunt facial expressions, that
hold too much emotional
content for the heart to bear
alone.

Say I love you...just this once

lessen the burden on my spirit
that no longer lives beside you. My
soul can not exist in a realm
of diseased tranquility, manipulated
by the broken promises of yesterday.
The totality of my being has shattered
at my calling from the angels...
leaving behind tiny little fractures

my goodbye to you.

    ^^ I absolutely loved this stanza right here!...I thought it was so poetically written if you know what I mean. It was a great description of temptation , but with this poetic twist on it! I just loved it!

    This poem as a whole was awesome! Your word choice was incredible, I loved the flow, the title, and the sadness that I could feel reading this.
    Good work!
