MEMORIES ON A HILL

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

I didn’t straight back home. 

It was indispensable to be alone. 

Maybe to lick my pain or better groan.

So I went up on that hill.

Where we decided to merge our bills.

Our hearts bound with our wills.

This time to digest your word's aftertaste.

Address my feeling like a waste.

Your leaving in sudden haste.


Forgive me, my lady. 

Long I can't stay.

I need to go away.

I will return any day.

Not that its your fault or your doing.

Gotta do with how my end is going.

Bars have just been raised.

Goals have to be chased.

My mind at its sublime.

This village is being like lime.


Your words whirled like dust.

My mind captured nothing at first.

Just saw your lips moving fast.

And with every narrative you cast.

I could read how quickly you wanted to be done.

Your usual decipherable face gone.

Replaced by cold and jaded.

I felt my strength get faded.


I thought I heard you swore.

That you loved me to the core.

Why then start this war?

That will instigate in me a storm.

Inviting pain as my new norm.

Hunting my heart for its new form.


Your eyes held the ground.

While mine were teased by tears around.

Awaiting what my pleas had found.

Your face rose looking different.

Not a trace of guilt.

Excuses followed in a moment.

How time between us was unforgettable.

If only your words were dependable.

Maybe it wouldn't feel this regrettable.


I am sacrificing too, lass.

Where am going demands focus.

Which means even ending us.

To go try my luck with the stars.

You will remain in my dreams.

My guiding gleam.

If only you can wait for me.


Your words stabbed deep and tore.

Leaving my heart in gore.

Before I could bled through my pores.

I turned to flee their wrath.

Followed the same path.

That led to place you took my worth.

And introduced my ears to goth.        

Retracing what now felt like a myth.




Thanks for coming by.
