Crucified Fables
By Ladyhawke
The myth of Love
It's said he's forgotten time
Time and
passion and love for the stars
He's deadened toward feelings
Nothing
left but scars
~
The myth of Hate
It's said
he consumes all
Consumes everything around him
But his
soul's just aching
His dreams looking dim
~
The
myth of Passion
It's said he won't burn for long
Fire will
smolder, killing his dreams
He just wanted to love
His heart
breaks and screams
~
The myth of Time
It's said
he will fade away
Be forgotten and blown through the wind
But his poor soul's been beaten
Been shackled by his sins
~
The myth of Sins
It's said he'd be forgiven
But alas, forgiven he was not
So, slave he is to hell
Peace
never was sought

Author's Note:
I wrote this while my sister was in the hospital. I was, forgive the expression, losing my mind for a time. So, this may not make sense. The rhyming scheme is shot, so don't even look for it. Just, words strung together....Comments on "Crucified Fables"

When words are given to describe pain, misery, or the brim of insanity they will always make sense to the ones who know those places, and among this realm we all do. So rest assured your choiced words are exalted by many, especially myself. Stunning, Exhilirating, Overall Penetrating to the depths of beyond the core of the spirit. I Applaud and Bow

It's said that poems written in the worst of times are the best. I know the time was stressful but the weaving of the "myths" associated with emotions in this poem was amazing. You know, I've always wondered where all the emotions came from? How did emotions come into existence. Did the first human species felt pain? Felt love? Now that I know these are nothing but 'myths', my search is over. I can die in peace. ;)
I love this one! Book marked!

I LOVE how you've given life to these abstract concepts. It's one of my favorite techniques. Oh, and don't worry too much about rhyming. It works wonderfully as prose. Your author's note gives this a certain tenderness.
