THE BROKEN ONE - BY JRQC



Rage, sadness, solace, rapture, depression,

she falls into the pit over and over again,

and from the broken pieces she rebuilds herself... again...in pain?

off the disheartened broken sunset she feeds on the memories of his dwelling,

while a choir of voices is heard, in waves, free of pain.


Rage makes the soul walk in sticks, and softly bandages the heart

and the mind covers it in silk,

to better sense the reality in a soothing way,

where her deceiving soul and passion raise the flag of his heart.


Sadness, oh that ugly bitter one which marks the silhouette of the candle,

and causes havoc in the room of her solitude,

why should it stay with her when solace conforms her deepest desire,

is it not enough to witness her pierced heart bathed in the blood of sunsets and tears?


Rapture seems to have abandoned her with just a broken glass of wine,

have mercy on her, bathed her in petals I say!

yet no-one hears the clamour of her voice, my voice,

there is just solitude in the streets embalmed by yellow light,

yet the hearts of those who walk persist on walking the aimless path,

the ones filled with wrath,

and she is left there,

decaying along her flowers.

REBELLION - by jrqc

"...countless times you mentioned your disbelief of achieving anything, yet here you are, immersed in colors with your wings spread wide!- oh, how relieved I am, for this merciless world of ours can make ashes those who dream of a better self..." "It has indeed been a challenging journey, I must confess, but one that was worthwhile. If I hadn't learned how to navigate and overcome the obstacles I encountered, the outcome would have been significantly different. Certainly there were moments when I sank in sorrow and my strength deserted both my heart and limbs, and it was during those times that I found the knowledge and the courage to persevere because of HIM., We are not granted any knowledge at the moment of our birth, for I believe we learn more both through His gracious mercy and our own mundane ways.." "I assume it wasn't an easy task to perform. Standing tall often requires facing defeat and acquiring humility. Qualities which are certainly hard t...

STATUE OF LOVE - poetic monologue by jrqc (stanzas, metaphors, symbolism used)

You banished me from the coldness of your embrace. Despite my begging and suffering, as I tore my ragged clothes in desperation, you showed no mercy and gave me none. My knees were grated and grazed from the harsh ground on which they stood. However, you, oh cold statue named Love, pointed your accusing finger at me, crowning my heart with thorns while exclaiming, "You, my child, the one who denied me! You, the one who refused my embrace! You ungrateful creature! You shall now wander the moors with pain in your heart and inhabit the shadows of my Love!" Despite the harrowing circumstances, my squirming soul persisted, and with what was left of my heart, I endured the pain. My teary, blurry vision became the prelude to new perceptions. But that was it, for I was scarred. I am scarred. I will be scarred, and no words, neither from that statue of Love nor yours, will provoke a change in the way things are. I have walked the moors, wept, and wailed throughout the vastness of the ...

DESPIERTA

  DESPIERTA - Despierta del umbral del sueño amada mía, ya haz visto la lluvia caer y mojar tus ropas sin enjugar tus lágrimas, mientras tus pies descalzos se pasean sobre la balustrada de piedra, y sigues en tu andar sin rumbo fijo.   Tus ojos entreabiertos, rehusan el despertar y prefieren sumergirse en la tranquilidad, ya haz visto las figuras de porcelana resquebrajdas y bañadas en lluvia, y las rosas que tan hermosas son bañadas en tus lágrimas, hasta ellas lamentan tu tristeza.   A que se asemeja tu sueño con tu vida preciosa mia? ya haz visto a los gemelos con sus ropas finas y su buen hablar, mas no disciernes la fantasía de la realidad, en un sueño del que al parecer no quieres despertar.   Había copas de vino en los marcos de la ventanas me decías, había alegría vestida en música, en cantos, en esperanza, ya haz visto y aun así no disciernes, ya haz visto y no quieres despertar para hacerlo realidad.   Despiert...
