Oxymoron Ending

by ah satan 666   Dec 21, 2012


A whirlwind
of selfish thoughts
destroys all memories of
good times.

{ Just end it... What's the point? }

Questions;
answers wanted...
Spinning in my head
like the sphere I temporarily exist in.

My mind has become a war zone,
as my body gives up the fight.

My dooms day papers have been signed and dated,
like a grenade thrown to the enemy with no pin.

"Is it a dud or will it go bang?"

Worthless either way...

{ Irony at its best }

"most defiantly terminal...
No chance of remission"

Endless tears
form ferocious seas
that crash on my cheeks...

eroding

the

lifeless

illuminating

white

flesh

I

now

possess...

Radiating like a supernova flare,
a short lived light force too.

No stealth left in me...
I glow at midday,
never mind in the
dark.

As I look up,
I find some peace in the apocalyptic fiery sky.
Lightning appears,
like splintered cracks in a holy stained glass window.

Shattering the thunderous roars
of heavens pearly gates
that beckons me...

{ Leave me alone }

But alone is what I am...

Stuck with my thoughts,
as I see family and friends
greeting me
with sorrow filled eyes.

{ How could I speak my truths }

If the world was to end today...
I'd be on equal grounds with my fellow homosapiens...

But I'm not on equal grounds,
I have cancer...
and my world is falling apart!

I've always said

" see you later "

I guess

"Goodbye"

is truly

"THE END".

-----------------------------------

When Taylor posted the challenge for
"End of the world"
I was all to eager to get very dark and gloomy.
I didn't submit entry in time.

I was asked by a friend to look at the challenge differently, through his eyes about his life and many people in the same terminally ill situation...

This was a hard write for me,
hats off to the people living it with a smile on there face <3

    A very powerful piece that is filled with evocative imagery of the reality of death. The structure is simply creatively producing the right pause at just the right time. Your dark and precise word choice made this piece truly an almost hair-raising poem.

    Well done!

    Natasha, I can imagine how painful this was for you to write. Not only for the fact of writing a poem about this illness to begin with, but to try and imagine what is like for your friend. It can be so hard when they feel one thing and we think another, like when they lose hope and we cant bear the thought of them thinking that way.

    You have interpreted his state of mind well and I imagine it would be this way for a lot of people who go through this.

    I love the layout and everything of this piece, it is very deep and it shows so much emotion that is from the heart,

    I hate ofcourse, that this is a real poem, but I hope in some way it maybe helped or comforted you to get this out.

    It was a brilliant job, so well done and thank you for sharing it with us. xx

    OMG
    O.O
    This is truly touching, your words really touched me, I dont have someone in my lofe who has cancer, I know one though, but I know its hard to watch them suffer, and you're not able to do anything. Just trying to stay smiling, and make them smile too.
    Those are people we must look up to.
    Really awesome piece Natasha:)
    Perfectly written!!
