Hi there, whoever said the world could go round without poetry? tell you what? poetry is the biggest aspect of my life right now. it feels like freedom!!! DEADLY HOPE Lying in a self-pooled blood Yet in the heavy flood Thunders looking with Murderous eyes-fire lit Gasping for breath Contending with death Asking for the hands of hope Yet hope said nope Having the throat badly strangled And the body badly handled Confusion heard the cry Yet hope was leaving him to die Hope, he believed wasn’t fair For pretending not to hear The face was getting pale He glanced at hope in pain Then tried stretching his hands But hope was leaving the land It was the turn of death Who readily pounced on its target And while his spirit was been taken to Hades Who had been expecting him for ages, He whispered hope Yes was there apart from nope He wondered what use it was Being rescued after dead he was Hope then whispered Like though it whimpered I see no reason why I shouldn’t let you die Like success after the splat, Between us there’s a mat Which is filled with great pains Agonies and sorrows are what it contains If only you can endure this, You would have a love-filled bliss He grabbed hope’s hand And shouted as though mad Like hope predicted, He wasn’t committed So, he let go of hope And took despair in place of hope It was his calling It also, was his ending. |

In the dead of winter I passed by A glowing berg of ice. . . I drew nearer To what my eye spied: A strange fire. . . Would its sparkle suffice? |
