16 broken chains of pain,
Wrapped around me,
At random intervals,
Each chain signifies,
Random phases,
Of my life,
Stinging and poking,
At the pit of my miseries,
Commanding the obstacles,
The debacles that I survived,
Each part covered with blood,
Resurrecting my memories,
From which I revived,
16 broken chains,
Of my screams,
Still ring in my ears,
Engulfing my childhood,
With cries,
Broken and destroyed,
All the 16 chains,
I still survive,
When I lie on my death bed,
After 20 years,
16 broken chains of pain,
Leave a shadow,
On my grave,
Carving rest in pain,
Reminding the sole,
Bearer of my life.
Ho-Hum. And you know why I do that? Coz its getting repetitive man. The darkness, the pain, the anguish, wound only by words, man, that’s not done. I might as well substitute 16 chains with 10 rings I wear in each of my fingers. What’s the significance of the chains then? If you had mentioned what each of it symbolizes, the case might’ve been different.
ReplyDeleteThe poem failed to impress.
hey daone,
ReplyDeletethx for reading and replying to my work.in between i try to change the flow of my poems for example just two poems back i wrote "I touch the sky"which everyone has just ignored to read.it is a complete opposite of my writing style.Describing 16 chains-16 most painful movements of my life is like writing a short story!!i choose to leave that to the readers.after every 6-7 poems i write a complete different one.In life happiness comes once in a while.my blog will portray sadness on a huge scale and in between give you a reason to smile just like life!!read "I touch the sky" you will get my point!!keep reading!
I think it's fun to go to the dump. You can look at the dump. You can eat out of the dump. You can play in the dump. You can smell the dump. One time I goed to the dump and I found the old man who lives in the dump and I found an old lamp and i smashed it over his head and I stomped on him until he coughed up blood. I think he kicked the bucket.
ReplyDeleteI only say all this on account of it is rather amazing to live in this wonderful world, where you can go to the pet cemetery and dig up dead animals and eat them.
well, anyway, Martin Van Buren was a professional wrestler.
Hey, so this piece was good, I really liked tha tit was specific- 16 broken chains- i think that already steps it up a noch than if you had just said broken chains, making things specific yet general enough for understanding if very effective. Keep writing, I like seeing all your work! I'd love to see some fiction!

hey workhard,
ReplyDeletei have substituted the most painful moments of my life as chains wrapped around me,bounded to me time after time.i think everyone feels the same way as if they are trapped,as if the pain envelopes them!!no matter how much you try,how much effort you put in,it never heals.it always remains like a faint memory embedded in your mind.you can say the pain heals but you still see the scars of those chains all your life!!that's the significance of 16 chains for you my friend!!keep reading!!
