Crimson Sky


Let the directions be directionless tonight
And, the drunk breeze wild…
Death came to her in my arms
And, the crimson sky didn’t care that night

So, what if the tears are safely tucked away?
And, solace seems nowhere in sight…
I await the other side…
While the sky keeps burning my eyes

Your last, cold kiss…
The bloodless eyes…
And, the urn was all that was left that night…
But, there is still fire in the sky and I’m alright

The cost you paid for my life was too high…
I live, lost in the pages of your diary
While I watch the fire in the sky and think
I lost you in my arms and the crimson sky never cared…

just awesome imagery used...and the sky never cares...for we shall live & die under the same sky but it shall never care for it has seen untold things in the past & shall do so in the future.

"But, there is still fire in the sky and I’m alright...." Yes it doesnt care....for it never cared when we laughed and smiled in its shade...and when we cried and mourned as well....it is beautiful....the unreasonably heavy burden of pain that man has to carry in his life...and yet...it is just him who has the capability to bear that..you have brought out an inexplicable frustration in a subtle manner....keep writing

Beautiful imagery...keep writing, that's all I have to say; my poems aren't anything like this, and I must say, I am slightly jealous.^^
