Face To Face

Face To Face

A Poem by KAREN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another presence watches me

Dispiriting shadow wavers

Intense darkness covers us

Fading heart beat in the distance,

Send chills in the sultry breeze

 

Eyes are smoldering like flame

Maddened by occurrences of living

She lingers close by

Leaving an unnatural feeling

 

Anguish is her air

Filters unsteady cries

Despair clothes her colourless complexion

Stepping stones of worthlessness lead the way

 

Emptiness is her aura

Loneliness hovers

Emotional distress weakens a diluted mind

 

Sounds of sorrow is her voice

Her touch is transparent

Tears stain her, each one having a name

That explain her unmeaning life

 

Trails of disgust

Streams of unhappiness

Paths of pain

Bring me to the shadow

 

I come face to face

 

With Me

Such deep captivating, brilliant word choises in here... the way you are willing to confront yourself in the last part, is so strong, and stunning. I must admit this touched me.

Exceptional poem...such depth of feeling...to truly look into oneself and see each angle is rare most are afraid to admit what life is...even if the emotion runs deep

Really enjoyed this, and how each tear has a name, I can relate to this...Sometimes we have to face reality, coming face to face with ourselves is often eye opening!
Great piece you wrote here.
