Fare Lady
my fare lady that you loved..
why must those who shout brake you down?
sometimes sleeping helps forget...forget the
pain inbeded inside her.
to have empty days and bullshit nights.
sleeping to forget that she has no reason to smile.
vines sprouted flowers around her ribcage.
slowly keeping it all to herself.
Closing her eyes to drift from herself
to bring forth emptiness
blackening every light that surrounds her
so no more eyes will she see
scratching her brain like metallic hand
leaving her body apone this land
letting her sleepless nights shut down her thoughts
dividing herself and the world apart
nothing can save her from her lonely dark road
to carry her mission all alone
smiling of smells the sakura tree
even thou her eyes will not see
drifting from her self from bull shit nights
resting to forget that it wount be alright
sleeping to forget the pain that graves in her
heart
Mellowing out the sounds and deviding them apart
blinded eyes will never see light
once apone a time on that faithful night
-Kumiko Yamamoto

Re: Fare Lady
Creates a good image. Nice wording, but as you have stated that you want honest critique. So I must put out there that there are a couple spelling errors, also, Do you mean 'Fare' Lady? Or 'Fair' Lady.

I really enjoyed this poem, I too have gone to bed crying trying to shut out the world and light to fall asleep and escapee from the pain.

This poem reaaly creates a picture and speaks to our hearts, even if we are not a lady, especially those that have been bruised... Well done

BTW --
I also like your use of the word
"Fare" lady ---
because it suggests that some type of PRICE
was paid in this relationship......

Quite the depressing poem you've written. Forgive my ignorance but I assume this write is about a failed relationship,or is there more to this than I can comprehend?

An astoundingly beautiful and surreal work of art, charming Kumiko! This line was remarkably inspired, I thought:
"vines sprouted flowers around her ribcage."
That impressed me greatly with the vibrancy of the contrasting image that conjures up: flowers that represent life, and a ribcage that brings to mind death. Together it is evocative of a cycle of life, death, and rebirth that brings to mind eternity and the immortality of the soul. Which was something I was not expecting to notice in this poem, but which I found impressive. Now this line was also magnificent:
"Closing her eyes to drift from herself
to bring forth emptiness"
Because it made me think of a person meditating in search of enlightenment and inner peace, or a Buddha seeking Nirvana. An interesting image: that seemed to add a further spiritual element where I was not expecting to find one. Very good writing!
So in addition to being a deep and heartfelt poem about one's feelings, emotions, and loneliness, there are deeper dimensions that call to the reader and which warrant a second or third read just to take in all the beauty of this piece.
This was a joy to read, as all your poetry is to me, and one of your best and finest works ever!
Much love to you. :)
