Amongst The Noise

random words brought together to make something... acceptable

Wings of a butterfly,

Eyes of an angel,

Soul of a demon,

Faith extinguished,

 

Hands as soft as silk,

Words as smooth as gold,

Intentions as solid as stone,

Love destroyed,

 

Apologies falling into place,

Misconstrued ideas revealed,

Aching hearts thrown into battle,

Violent screams at midnight,

 

Claim to love,

Claim to forgive,

Willingness to move forward,

Taken out of context,

 

Standing still amongst the noise,

Closing ears to self-bound rage,

No one to blame other than self,

For opening heart to demonic lies,

 

Knowledge of angelic lies,

Did naught to quell intrigued mind,

Taking hold of insecurities,

Ruining what they knew him to be,

 

A shell of him does but remain,

Staring into empty with self-bound rage,

Cursing to the wind at simple mind,

Sitting still amongst the noise.

So this is going to sound a bit strange, but I like how hard your poems are to read, like they really make me think, you use a lot of symbolism and imagery which in my opion is realky lacking in most writer's works on this site. I really enjoy you're writing.
