Scarred
Scarred
A pale moon shining
barely lighting the way
the path, refining
to not let it lead me astray
Hushed, soft tones
of the trees in the wind
the voice of the past speaking
of those who have sinned
Leading, guiding, very much aware
knowing, unlike me
what had taken place there
what I would see
And as I stumbled forth
driven by weariness, despair
the light shining, far in the north
lead me into their lair
I had to know, I couldn't leave
without the truth
without relief
of knowing you were safe
I know they warned me
I couldn't care
I just couldn't see
that this my eyes I should really spare
The banks of the river
flithy with blood
made me cry, made me shiver
'cause down there, in the mud..
My worst nightmare, my worst fear
panic, hysteria creeping in
for he who I loved so much, held so dear
got repayed for his only sin
Then, I slowly awoke from my troubled sleep
and, realising where I was
collapsed back into a heap
it was not just a dream, because..
It was the past that scarred me
even now, I cannot let go
It haunts me everywhere
For nothing is safe, not even my dreams

| haha, ff een kleine tip ;) als je wilt reageren op een reactie is het slim om dat via een mailtje oid te doen (zie icoontje), mensen gaan namelijk niet heel vaak terug naar een gedicht waar ze al op gereageerd hebben =) gr kerwin |

| Dankje!! Ik heb tot nu toe nog niks (recent) in het Nederlands gedicht.. heb alleen nog wat gedichten van een poezieproject 2 jaar geleden, maar die waren allemaal geleid.. moesten op een bepaalde manier in elkaar zitten enzo, dus dat was niet zo boeiend, haha Over het algemeen kom ik in het Engels beter uit m'n woorden, maar ik zal ook nog wel een keer proberen om iets in het Nederlands te schrijven ja... wel leuk misschien, om ff te kijken hoe dat gaat enzo |

hehe, ik ben weer erg onder de indruk. Perfect engels dit, en zeer knap hoe je het ritme in het gedicht vast kan houden. Erg tof. gr kerwin p.s. Ik heb niks tegen engels, maar ben wel zeer benieuwd of je toevallig ook in het nederlands dicht |
