I stand in troubled waters.

Love sucks. Sometimes..

 

 

Thoughts play across my mind like tiny fingers

Leaving their impression of stain upon my form

I stand in troubled waters

Rain plaguing down upon me, my body of worn.

 

Images pass and go

Yet where to?

For forever they remain

Ahh, if I only knew..

 

That memories do enter all bypassed thoughts

They do stay hidden, coming forth on weakest moments

For undying love has no where to hide

Except here, upon these waters torments.

 

Where I stare up towards the moonlight

Eyes teary, unseeing all, except your face

And I stand open and bare

Troubled and unsure, my tears my only trace.

 

Forgoing all I have brought with me

My pride and unsurpassed pain

My body numb for all around me

For all remaining is loves deep dark stain.

 

Yes...

 

Forever to fall upon me

For forever they remain

For I stand in troubled waters. 

 

Rain plaguing down upon me..

 It seems, once again...

life is a bittersweet pill at times no?...we live to love and love to live and yet we experience the inevitable...a broken heart, unloved, the unfortunate emotion of love...and then we move on with memories filling our minds...

nice work Mags...sad...but nice...

[Nothing Personal]

It seems dark and hopeless, after a tumultuous breakup from a lasting relationship, the rain is the only comfort, the rain is the only solace. Brilliant work on pain, and suffering and it's apparent endlessness !!

[Shayne Harnden]

A somber piece, but still one that is good. I can relate to this.

[Sukriti Suki]

undying love has nowhere to hide....exceptional stuff.

[SpokenWord]

This poetic wonder and beauty within one who feels the pain of love. There is always love who could once again touch the heart to waken a soul that is morning over heartbreak. I like how you rendered this bringing us throgh images and feelings that played like a song on a rainy day. Wonderful write.

"Forever to fall upon me
For forever they remain
For I stand in troubled waters."
