"griefed" poems
For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they crash upon the blood stained floor? For thou wilt struck thine enemy Vile and desecrated Laced in low To rise atop the jet black stair and to live alive forevermore Raining down from the darkened skies Is beauty beyond beauty beyond shining Down from the fisherman’s sky is indifference Vile and desecrated To be a living hell To rise atop the jet black stair and to how one can ever tell For what attracts us to the scarlet ribbon? As they fly from metal cold and lifeless Lift me up above thine enemy Anguished and griefed Craft is the plague To rise atop the jet black stair and again to how one can ever tell Falling sick upon a collapsed journey Is my love, for where art thou? Fallen to thine enemy? You promised You promised but how can one truly ever tell?

The Scarlet Ribbon
What I remember are many things. Some are good, others aren't. One day I don't remember anything at all. I think, do, feel different. The following day, there are these waves. Waves of another person. And then I remember something What I remember is nothing good. What I remember is my own life. My life with joy. My life full of grief, often made so by myself. Sometimes I hurted others and later that day, griefed about what happened. Not knowing how to make the change, my life past by. My life where it was all different. Different from others, different from the rest, other than myself. A new opportunity is what I want. Unfortunately to want is never to get. To want is to fight for it. I can no longer fight, I can not fight any longer. I keep wandering with my thoughts. Thoughts about my past, all that I remember. I'm trying to find another way. I forget my memories, until I can no longer find them. Then I walk away, away from my memories and my previous life. I walk different this time, a very different way. I walk the way of my future. The future, the future is where I would fight.
