Thoughts About Our Lives

#2: Illumi:-

Raven strands of silk as black as the night

Get lost in the darkness of ebony eyes.

Skin as pale and ghastly as the shades of a full moon

And the grace of a midnight breeze.

Behind this magnificent beauty, lies,

A heart that died years ago,

And buried beneath eternal ice.

Awakenings are possible,

But they are short,

Like the rise of the dead from their grave,

Or like the screams of a captive locked in a damp dungeon

That fade away in the darkness.

White robe tarnished with red,

Scarlet blood covering the surroundings;

Yet the same expression plastered on the face,

Features so quiet and peaceful,

Like the face of an immortal angel.

The serene view yet hides beneath,

A soul that desires the joys of life;

Thirsty for a fleeting kiss or a tight embrace,

Demanding from someone to say "I love you",

Needing sympathy,

Needing affection,

Needing love,

Wanting to smile like an innocent child,

Wanting to cry,

Wanting to live the way others live.

But he can't,

His life is his, yet he does not own it.

He was taught that his life belonged

To he who paid the higher price,

Just like a puppet in the hands of a puppeteer

Or like what a slave is to his master.

So, don't just be fooled by grace or magnificent beauty,

Look deep inside the bottomless eyes,

Unlock the door to the melancholic heart

And wander through it.

Try to understand what lies deep down,

Uncover the mysteries inside that dark chamber

And free the despondent soul imprisoned in there.

A/N: Phew! Second chapter done at last! I was too scared I would lose the inspiration to continue, but I am really happy that it went all right.Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed reading. People, I still need your advice, so plz, read and review, and I add a lot of emphasis on the word "review".
