Nefelibata- The rants of a cloud-walker

Me

Deceitful tongues painting lies,
Masked faces flashing smiles,
Backstabbing hands hugging kind,
I believed it all; it belied my fall.

The wounds of trust burned my soul,
Numbing pain tore at my home,
Swelling feelings burst my heart,
I held it all; it wrecked me apart.

Nauseous nightmares, once lovely dreams,
Disguised demons once divine angels,
Poisoned passages, once enticing words,
I was blind to all; it fooled me and laughed.

Rolling and falling through the abyss,
I desperately flailed for a hold to hold,
The bile of bitter memories roiled up,
I swallowed it all; it choked my throat.

Trembling hands sought comfort,
Teary eyes earned to have wiped,
The lonely breath rattled for a hope,
I felt it all; it demanded my call.

Flawed and faltered, left alone in the dark,
Shredded and battered, throbbed my lark,
Curled up and cried, a little longing heart,
All through it all, none came for me at all.

I stumbled through my life, With the grace of a corpse,
Flesh on the bones, feelings skinned and gone,
Bared to the world, but barred of soul,
I lied to all; that it didn't hurt at all.

It was my eyes that cried for a loss,
It was my home that craved for halls,
I had it in me to satiate myself,
I learned it all, bidding expectation of all.

Tired heart, perked up its beat,
Sorrowful eyes spilt its tears,
Withered lips, fluffed up a smile,
I was my all, I realised it at last.
