Unforgiven
By Melancholic VIncent
Fallen on my knees in the rooftops
I lock the bleak night
On
my arterial blood sight
(Helices of a chopper
slices the air not far from here
Rapidly approaches, an ever increasing
machine gun sound)
Clutched claws held to the
bloody sky
What starts to be a roar of pure rage
Like casting
a curse at the hellish universe
(Muzzled by the spinning
blades
Hammering hard at my ears)
Ends with an
inarticulate cry
Of despair and defeat
Held up frustration
for so long
Is released in a prolonged yelled out why
I scream
so loud
Stupidly thinking that God would hear
Wet on
the blizzard of unattended prayers
I lay on my knees in the rooftops
Odd place to be at night
Or in any other time for that matter
Only in a desperate fool's course of action

Author's Note:
I was really angry and sad when I wrote this, kinda controlling myself not to do something that I shouldn't and I have put those emotions in here. I don't get this sad or angry many times nowadays.Comments on "Unforgiven"

It is never wasted time on ones knees in prayer my friend. Although preferably not up on rooftops when depressed. Your word choice made me feel your anguish in this. Well done.

The ideia of being on rooftops it's being close to the sky and on the same time the foolishness of trying to be closer to the sky since the distance is enormous. So it's impossible for God to hear.

vincent you should never make an apoligy for inking your emotions or thoughts into the form of writing. we here at dp think out loud publicly through poetry and we connect with people in this manner. some show support some just relate and some just dont matter. i love it raw, unfiltered, at face value! and im one of hundreds! speak from the heart cause thats where poetry is found! awesome!

I wasn't apologizing haunted, I was just contextualizing my poem here. I was just saying what was going on with me to make that poem. Saying what driven me to do it. But your support is great! It's always good to hear things like that. Thanks haunted!
