Contemplation

Misery and pain
Is that all?
Is it the rain,
Outside the wall?

Did you try?
Speak the truth.
Silence or circumstances or ego
What was the route?

Ask your heart
The price of denial
Loneliness and anger
Fall before the last mile

Closing in to the final words
Hands start shivering
Stay strong for victory
Winner shall get a losing trophy

I believed in angels
The angel walked past me
Cold, insensitive and stubborn
Human in reality

The days shall end soon
A tough night eternal follows
This incorrigible heart must surrender
Weeping quietly on the gallows.
