Remember me beloved… The heavy air circled around me With its emptiness within, the black clouds filled above me The mausoleum’s magnificent mirage The fairies forty winks alongside Odin, her slayer A winged angel accompanied by peace The mighty gargoyle glowered at us In me the statue of the pariah Water drops unto the rough concrete My still lingered love left unpolished Thousand years I bore this anguish And yet even more I loved Remember me beloved… When a creature’s only wish is to be left alone Unaware of the powers of nature She tampered the gates of seclusion And invoked love within me Untouchable by others, she touched Ignominy in the eyes of others, she cared Her presence more than her warmth restrained me Adieu to the Gargoyle that left me Welcome O’ Odin, yielding thy rapier And serene those who deceive Of all the forces of nature, I always filled the gaps of mockery For all was lost when I saw her in the hands of another Rage filled me for she had promised Hope shattered for she had promised I cried again in the walls of solitude No one shared my pains I Damned her My mind was filled with thoughts of silence An outcast in the eyes of others I was left along to torment I was doomed to suffer in Hell While she stayed on cloud nine Again she tampered the gates of seclusion I had always wanted to remain with her “Come forth”, I said as I shed my hands toward her I closed the gates behind her… My still lingered love left unpolished Thousand years I bore this anguish And yet even more I loved I knelt down towards the sepulcher and lay the flowers Whispering softly, ‘Remember me beloved…’ by Sean (in this poem the man's love is dead...Thats why he is visiting her in the graveyard...and then he has these past memories of his past of how much he loved her...but then the suspense draws in on how she died and the truth is he was the one who killed her since she betrayed him...hence 'he closed the gates behind her') |
