“Crucifixion”

Emptiness
It rests not with you
Only in my soul
I’m so pre-disposed
Altered so much from the original
Yet still haven’t reached unique
Forgotten, she sleeps the night away
While I’m left wishing
Wishing upon that stupid star
Life is a masquerade
Whoever wears the best mask
Truly has the most to hide
I tried so hard to make you happy
Somehow still
You found misery in the sun
As the tears of sorrow filled the night
You trembled within the rain
Why do you smile?
When all I did was walk away
Must I feel like Jesus?
Strap me to my cross
So that I may die for another’s sins
Don’t bury me in the garden
The flowers shall wither and fade
Lay me in the darker shades of gray
Just another product
Of a disgruntled society
Always found wanting
It’s just emptiness
It rests not with you
But it burns brightest
Deep within my soul

Oh Mike, once again another brilliant poem of a talented poet :)
You have such rhythm, I don't know if you see it or mean for it to be there but each time I read one of your poems I have to read it in rhythm haha. ...well meter I guess, if you want to get all technical haha
Bravo!

You have a creative mind coupled with a tender sensitive heart and soul. It reaches through to some very powerful and thought provoking feelings that you write.

Very moving. I love to read you!!

Read in rhythm- like a beat
Meter- pretty much the same as rhythm
You know how Shakespeare writes in iambic pentameter? It's like that

This one wasn't my favorite, maybe it was the comparison to Jesus. I'm not sure.
You know I think you're very talented, though.

LoL

It's k baby.
I don't expect you, let alone anyone, to like everything I write.

I just ask for honest opinions.
I know, good or bad, that's what you'll give me.

Makes me love you even more.
:)
