vain hope, vainer thought

someday
they will
wont they
make an account
of all the sighs
and the tears
of the earth?

they will, wont they,
in some bizzare cosmic audit
unearth the sins
that were bled and then buried?

someday, they will,
wont they
explain to me
why...
just that...

WHY?

  1. this is wonderful.

    i don't think so. i'm learning (fast) the real answers lie within and some are unexplainable.

    i always like to hear from you and read what you've written, hdwk ♥

  3. Sometimes not knowing a reason is a blessing in disguise. It prevents you from being lied to and deceived in the process....

    This is what comes to my mind...


    someday
    you wish
    they will
    frame someone else
    construct a coverup story
    & come up with a justifiable lie
    and thus blanket
    all the sighs
    all the tears
    the bleeding sins
    and all that needs an explanation

    and you will
    on that day
    close your eyes
    and shun your ears
    to see anything else
    or hear anything more
    the apology would be accepted
    and a new clean slate be issued
    for fresher wounds
    and sinister hollow promises
    only to walk the loop
    in this timeless abyss....
