Cirque du freak (collection)

[Chaotic_Thetis]

A/N: Cirque du freak is a small collection of poems i've been working on that go with a few paintings and sketches i've done, this poem is just one of them so if i post anymore with the same title, they're connected but aren't the same.

Will anyone just hear me when
Words are uttered like fading wistful shards
Of stars,
Pay me some attention when
Crimson fluid decides to make an appearance in the
Cirque du freak.
If you’d only see my little dancing angels
Dance away into the atmosphere;
They don’t want to be in the world that
Doesn’t respond, react and reach for their
Hands.
I’ll reach for the hands of time
If they stretched out towards me…
If they’d give me a chance to die with them…
I don’t like being hurt
So I don’t want to stay.
I don’t want to change
But I don’t want to cry anymore.
Let me wish upon a star and fly away with
Anyone who’ll take me-

But you don’t care when you’re tucked up
Warm in warm-hearted solitude and friends-

And you won’t fly me away…

Good poem..You sound so lonely..we all are..almost sonanamous with being a poet.

I’ll reach for the hands of time
If they stretched out towards me…
If they’d give me a chance to die with them

i love this part...it was so heartwrenching...especially when i know the feeling, not the exact, but the wanting to disappear from time, to escape life, to just end it...great job...very emotional

Perhaps that is the case amongst most poets, but then it has been said "the best authors and poets are that of a tortured soul" Maybe though, tortured is taking it on various levels of understanding. Ne who, thanks much both, dearly appreciated ^_^

Your lonliness certainly comes through in this piece. It reminds me of some of the pieces I wrote, only without the angels. Anyway, I like the imagery of the angels and dying in Time's arms.
