Of Two Things

[Lord of Kaos]

Fairly simple, the poem is pretty self-explanatory tbh.

Of Two Things​

In my life, of two things I'm sure of to this date:
The first is death which seems a cruel fate
But under close examination, who are we to know
That death is not just the next great river to row?
The best man doesn't run from it, he accepts it
The worse fear it and love everything except it
Me? I myself am numb to it all...
It it a bottomless pit where my soul will eternally fall?
Or is rather a staircase where I will eventually reach the top
Or will I be reborn into a lineage of kings, sitting in the best spot.

The first thing is the lesser of two evils while the second is worse:
A heavy birden lamenting a light heart like an enormous curse
If cracked, it can be mended; if broken, it's beyond repair
The tender touch of a jagged brick can feel like a rough push of a soft feather
To a soul that feels the same always: Down and gloomy in any weather
No one wants it but everyone will have it at some point in life
No one benefits from it but the one causing the strife.

Of the two things, I look forward to the first
Because a fate worse than death will only cause my heart to burst.

Just curious, can anyone tell what the two things are?

Merci beaucoup!

 

[Lili-Chwan]

Love?

 

[Lord of Kaos]

Close. Heartache to be specific.

 

[Lili-Chwan]

Different faces of the same coin, i say

 

[Lord of Kaos]

Yeah, that's what I was saying.

 

[BlacKing]

Sigh, only those who have felt it will ever know its true pain....death is indeed a better fate, than to have loved in vain.

 

[Lili-Chwan]

I disagree. Better have loved and lost, then never have loved at all.

 

[BlacKing]

Depends on how badly you have been hurt I guess and how strongly you love. If my wife and I were to ever get a divorce, you might as well kill me because I will be of no use to anyone. And having almost gotten to that point once, Trust me, I would rather die than to feel that pain.
Some say death is just the next great adventure. I say it is but a solace to exscape from life's pain.

O.O
Whoa, I sounded really emo and like I needed some help with what I just wrote...I beleive it, but don't mean it to sound quite as emo wrist cutter like it sounds lol

I don't know. After experiencing heartache and pain so many times, I want to agree but it's pretty hard to do that. I'd just rather stay guarded and shielded from all of that.

>_> Emo and cutter are to different things. Cutters are cutters, you don't have to be emo to be a cutter. And there's nothing wrong with being emo. You say it likes it's a disease or something. :|

I know, I meant a combination of the two, NOT that emos all cut themselves, but that it sounded emo AND i wanted to cut myself. lol

I meant no offense to anyone, just thought it was the way I sounded after I reread my post.

Not all of us. I'm just going to assume that's a grammatical error.

 

[BlacKing]

should say NOT that emos all cut themselves. O_O

 

[Lord of Kaos]

Yeah, I gathered that much.

 

[BlacKing]

>_>
Think I'll go sit in a corner for awhile now.
<_<

 

[Lili-Chwan]

Pft, pussies.

Having loved and been hurt countless times, I know how dark one can get. I have a boyfriend now, which I love more than everything. Had I been stuck in the past because of heartache, I would have never experienced this.
Just keep looking forward.

xd LMAO.

I understand but I enjoy my loneliness. Gives me a chance to better myself before I make the commitment of being with someone else.

 

[Lili-Chwan]

xd LMAO.

It's true. The only thing you both could have against me is the fact I'm only 19
