Words Are Not Just Words

in #poem6 years ago

another day

another morning

a lingering aftertaste

from another disturbing night

mornings are cruel

bodies are stiff

but ready to be bend

to meet the needs

and to feed the greed

uncomplainingly

and persistently

day in

day out

relentlessly exploiting ourselves

until complete depletion

just shifting

from stage to stage

but actually dropping the level

fading strength

waning vitality

make place for some unfilled longing

swiftly drifting

to the next air bubble

hoping to stay afloat

salvation

is not even close

rescue

not even called

sadness

is left no time nor space

despised

and yet abandoned

the subtle incentive dispels every rest

no place for a mind without a life

survival

sounds like an epic sword

since eternity is just a bland word

This is very good. I didn’t know you could write like this in English. More, pls.

And...I know you’re very busy right now. But someday soon please come over just to hang out.

Schöne Worte...:-)

Sehr viel reingepackt in das morgendliche Paket.
Vom älter werden über die Sinnhaftigkeit zum wiederholten Hinterfragen.
Warum, weshalb, wieso ...
Ich kann deine Gedanken nachvollziehen.

I like it, it has deep meanings for different people
