Moonlight Stories: 4. Untitled

Li Yanmey

In the darkness of your tears and horrors

Try to find the right door and to leave.

No one wants to help, go only towards,

Don’t listen to the rumors; just breathe.

 

Pain connects you with the memories

About strange and horrible things,

With the times when your love was dangerous

And it left on your heart bleeding streaks.

 

You changed the color of your soft feathers,

It's black like that moonless night

When at the first time we became closer,

When your skin was hot and white.

 

Have you ever seen the sun burn?

Have you ever seen the sea?

The time comes, and everything turns

To the beginning of you and me.

 

If you’re stuck here for a moment, you’re going to lose.

If you lie to yourself, you will die.

Please don’t give up, don’t make an excuse.

Please, just let yourself to be mine.

 

There are things we can’t change and forget.

There are things we can try to fix.

This world is old puppet theater, and it’s sad.

Come on, let’s break down this wall of bricks.

 

Have you ever seen the sun burn?

Have you ever seen the sea?

The time comes, and everything turns

To the beginning of you and me.

 

It’s never loo late to start over,

It’s never too late to live.

Like a snake, our time is crawling,

And I’ll give you what I can give.

    A plead to a lover to reignite a dying love and renew a relationship. Nicely written I particularly loved the line "Have you ever seen the sun burn"

      It's so interesting how differently people understand poetry. And I like that it gives the poems a new meaning. Before, it was just me and my thoughts, my understanding of my poems as an author, but now I realize that my work makes a lot of sense.

      Thanks for your comments! It helps me to take a fresh look at what I write.
