COME ALIVE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Life runs crimson through seeping scars

A shattered soul ripped by raven lies

Bitter tasting prison with cerulean bars

Screams splinter peaceful night skies…

 

Come alive, come alive and taste the rain

Leave behind your bitterness and pain…

 

Oh you will know the nightmare is over

And your auburn dream has come alive

When you taste the ginger on my fingers

And you look into my sapphire eyes…

 

You’ve come alive, come alive to taste the rain

Left behind your bitterness and pain...

 

 

Author's Note

Life breathes over us in seasons... May you find spring smiling on you this day...

A gorgeous poem-an enticing invite
touches your soul and calls you out of the dark hole.

Wow Craig, absolutely phenomenal , every line transitions so well into the next. The screams echo throughout my head and I can hear the dripping of blood throughout. Very powerful imagery really puts the reader inside of the piece, literally i would be lying if i said i didnt feel every word physically because i most certainly did. Fantastic, and absolutely perfect.

It sure does. I sometimes seem to be living with pain ' or living int the past-
This is beautiful and a fine message.

This is just fantastic! We all need to rid ourselves and come out of the pain!

Oh you will know the nightmare is over
And your aburn dreams has come alive
When you taste the ginger on my finger tips
And you look into my sapphire eyes....

Excellent!!!

[Amy Bumpas]

I love this, and the thought of tasting rain...such a sensual thought indeed.
Some of my favorite lines: Life runs crimson through seeping scars
A shattered soul ripped by raven lies
Bitter tasting prison with cerulean bars
Screams splinter peaceful night skies…
And your auburn dream has come alive
When you taste the ginger on my fingers
And you look into my sapphire eyes…
Hell, that is half the poem...wonderful job here, and
so visual and free this felt.
