Absurdity In Burning Binds

[Tetsanosuke]

Fading voices accompany visions
Of times I've taken to heart,
The shaking of my hands parade-
Their evanescence as they depart

In toiling in the material
I have found the better days,
Lost in the memorial, as well-
As those of the amorous haze

In my loneliness I find truth
Biting harder than the beast,
A subtlety of desires caught-
In the binds of a fealty

With every impinge upon the surface
There is a shiver from the call,
From every memory serviced
I take a lesson from them all

No sooner could my heart
Release me from this cell,
Imprisoned in the labyrinth
Much like Perseus' hell

Where binds of circumstances hinder-
What I would doubt to be progress,
They suggest flint and steel for my tinder
For a fire thought to be flawless

The embers die out over time
No flame can last forever,
So what I seek is preposterous
But I feel it should come together

Might these memories guide me
With their fading light,
Then perhaps I will be satisfied
When the time is right

Wooh, well done man, you user title is really suitable for you!
Just loved that poem, you were really great at it

So, do you only write poems or also other kinds of stuff?

I used to Roleplay on a consistent basis. Otherwise I just haven't had the drive/inspiration to write outside of poetry as of late.

Thank you, though. I appreciate the fact that you enjoyed it.

Well but you go still pretty much
You're welcome, I am the one who's thankfull

I really like poetry, though I only read it (and not very often at all) in portuguese (I'm from Portugal)
But thanks to AF and also thanks to you I'm discovering really nice english poetry

Beautiful words. I think poetry is a very beautiful form of writing and its sad that its kind of a lost art. Im glad to see that there are those who keep it alive. well done my friend

I'd say it's definetely kinda lost art
Keeping it alive is both brave and awesome!
