Tragedy | Gemelene Magalona

I left for you,

the hollow silhouette
of a faithful shadow
lurking in the wistful wilderness

where echoes of despair
wail in the crippling thickness
of a drowning silence engulfed
by yesterday’s haunting melodies

I left for you,

the plague of a lie
draped with the dulcet tones
from a vow-stricken promises
of eternity’s black veil of fallen petals

I burn the effigy
of poison laden dreams
and buried it in the
April graveyards of my crimson veins.

I left for you,

the jagged reflections
of my pristine memoirs,
as I rip my heart tonight
in tragedy of us.
