Secret is Alive
No babies die in your arms.
No teddy bears screaming your name.
Such a shame, such a shame to lose the feeling.
We're the keepers of the secret.
The sheet soaked with white and red.
The draft is in your head.
The secret is alive.
You remember it,
Can't put it away.
It will never go away.
Time to medicate the memory.
The world is a crime,
And I'm just a watcher.
Evil never dies,
It only sleeps.
No teddy bears screaming your name.
Such a shame, such a shame to lose the feeling.
We're the keepers of the secret.
The sheet soaked with white and red.
The draft is in your head.
The secret is alive.
You remember it,
Can't put it away.
It will never go away.
Time to medicate the memory.
The world is a crime,
And I'm just a watcher.
Evil never dies,
It only sleeps.

A beautiful piece, this one!
Cool effort, C R Powers.
Love the way you've successfully woven that secretive tone into a poem this short...
And the last part...full of fabulous, cryptic lines....kinda have me in a tailspin:-)

Thanks so much for sharing :-)
Please pen on, poet!
