Goodbye.

Sat May 16, 2009, 3:25 PM
  • Mood: Rejected
  • Listening to: "Goodbye (poem)" by Emilie Autumn
  • Reading: The "Goodbye" poem.
  • Watching: I wish I was watching someone. D:
  • Playing: Taking random quizzes.
  • Eating: S'mores Poptarts. Yummy!
  • Drinking: I'm drinking in the essence of your soul still.
I just wanted to rewrite a poem in my journal that I automatically fell in love with by my favorite artist Emilie Autumn. The poem is called Goodbye.

Here is a link to hear her read this poem that she wrote: [link]

And here is the poem itself:

Goodbye

"Goodbye
And so I've said too much and not enough
And so the play is finally at an end
You never had the care to call my bluff,
and so I must be pleased to be your friend
But what then was the purpose of this game?
I never really had a chance to win
It's true, I rather like who I became
But what am I to do with who I've been?
For I may wish to meet myself someday
among the ashes of a fire long dead
To see my shadow there and hear it say
that it was happy with the life it led
What emptiness awaits me? This I fear
Far more than any peril I might face
My purpose in this world became less clear
When you were taken from your cherished place
Within my wishing heart and went your way
So willingly it almost makes me ill
To think it never crossed your mind to stay
Pushes the dagger deep, completes the kill
And yet how much of this was done by me?
Had I the courage would you still have flown?
How sad to think this was not destiny
But my mistake, yet how could I have known?
Now here is my dilemma, as it seems
Do I accept the score that fate has set,
And calmly watch the passing of my dreams
Or do I dare to place another bet
That where the curtain falls another rises
If I am wrong then strike me for my sins
But I believe our acts and thin disguises
Where but a prologue to what now begins"

I love Emilie Autumn! :D She's amazing. Check out more of her stuff. Her singing is awesome too! :heart:

And I felt like putting this poem attached to my journal because I feel like recently this poem describes me and someone I once knew.

Anyways how is everyone? Comment!!

Yes her poem is wonderful. My rendition? Well I do plan to write a poem called Goodbye when I receive more inspiration.

:icontyc113:
I can't wait until you do.

Well I've already started pieces of it. But I am stuck at the moment with where to go next with it. I need more random inspirations.
