It's been a decade and forever

Listen! did you hear it?

My hands on the strings

Shattering blessed quietness

Unharmonious as it has always been



Yesterday is lost

But my lifetime breathes of regrets

Perhaps, maybes, should-haves

They say worry is a waste

But what can a melancholic soul do?



The windows of my heart has been left ajar

For so long

In faith and trust

I thought i saw the signs

Read the signs



The night was still

Dark eyes searching into the murk

Evil creeping in

Dwelling without concurrence

It seemed to be landlord of nightfall



Beginning of doom was marked

I fell apart

Little Yomi to the winds

Felt like a dream come true

Anguish let out a mock



Pleasures isn't worth it afterall

Just a moment of insaneness and its all gone

If only

A little patience

Time would heal all sores



Now i'm down on my knees

Without words proceeding

Letters of my pleas suffocating in my chest

They seem to choke out my existence, in protest

So i guess they will be my escort to the grave



Write me a letter to Yomi

Tell her my heart aches

Tell her i do not wish for peace in death

But a place of unrest

Write a letter to Yomi !

Commentary:


This literary piece sojourns deep into the unproductive life of a man who lived waywardly and was not involved in the life of his daughter...

Much later at the brink of his life, he is in regrets, and flashes back at unsubstantial memoir but realizes it is too late to make amends.

He wishes himself torture as punishment.
