- My Lament - A short Poem

in Freewriters3 years ago (edited)

We let the irons cool
As the crucibles burned out
The time is now; is past
For the words are gone at last
We wait without a clue
I cannot remember why
For I cannot remember who

.
We let the waters dry
As their promises all but died
The time is now; is past
Love was never meant to last

.
Lament
Lament
The everlasting night

.
Lament
Lament
It will never be alright.

.

Living in vain
Accounting for the cost
To mourn
To repent
To be one among the lost

.
