Poem Artwork

 

 

Beware or it may take
you in,
decadence, debauchery,
original sin.

What reflects in
the mirror
stays in the soul.

Fragments stuck in time,
behind eyes
decieving, grievous mind.

Collage of lifelines tell,
tales of
memories lived well.

Like pearls on string we
gather,
that wich we dare not see.

Symphony gone astray,
come sing
a lullaby on this day.

For we are lost and found
some day,
for love and glory bound.

Mere birds on a wire,
left out,
for the world to admire.

I'm wondering if debauchery is pictured in the bar scene. It looks pretty innocent to me. Your poem seems mixed between joy and regret that ends with a rather pleasant tone.
