Still..Stagnant..Lost..Dead
Still
Stagnant
Lost
Dead
Last night i died again
killed by the same sword as before
Pierced
Defeated
Helpless
Damned
On the ground i see myself bleeding
the red turning to black in the gorging mud
Lost in dust it flows.. Unnoticed.. Unfelt.. Unmourned
Empty
Slaughtered
Neglected
Strewn
Punished for sins i never committed
Doomed to burn in this eternal fire of persecution
Slain by my God.. my Angel.. my Guardian
Stoned
Blacked out
Bound
Buried
Wings clipped anew
Crashed before I could fly
Burnt to cinders by this cold sun
Frozen to stone by this unforgiving earth
Back to the end
Back to no-escape
Unable to lock away, my doomed chest
End..end..this pain shall never
killing me again and again
sucking out my breath
Locking me in time
unable to move on
No answer
One question
that haunts me forever
bound in mid-stride
I am..
Still
Stagnant
Lost
Dead

well... i can see.. u r goin thru sum bad phase in ur life... but as u said 'phase' , its just a momentary thing... so cheer up.. never hurts to smile a bit..
well being a doc, can just help by stitching those wounds... hehe :) [p.s- i knw wht u'l say next these wounds cant be stitched :P]
cheer up gal... have a great diwali..
this indeed is amazin......simply marvelous....
fab expressions...the very core of existentialism intermingled with pain....
i simply loved it...
the clarity of thoughts is appreciable too...
@ashu
thanks :)
*hugsss*
yes life and its many phases n faces
it has taken on a different persona already :)
i hope the next time i can raise your spirits rather than bring u pain with my words
@vinni
well i have always been attracted to the surreal..the fantastic has lured me away from the world of reality and that is why i dip the nib of my soul into the ink of imagination before splaying it across this screen..but what i write is always honest and true to my heart and life..it is just under a shroud of words..but its all there..
and thanks :)
you too take care

but really it was real sweet of u to put in so much effort into it :)
lol...start giving happy endings....im no poet
but you are..you see we are all what different people bring out in us..may be i bring out the poet in you..what say?
