わたし 、ゴーレム
Posted on: July 13, 2014, at 02:17:53pm

There they stood, luminescent
Heaven on Earth, there in my eyes
Simply kind people with their gentle words
Those to whom I could smile

Simple gazes upon me, soulless
A known being, right before them all
A memory of time past there with just soul
Who made them smile once before

Though, their stares were blind to see
What I was there to mean
Behind my opaque visage
Was the writhing one inside.

I, in silence, smiled at them
Yet secretly shuddered, no words to come
I wished for them to smile again
...To where has my voice disappeared?

They turn, beginning to walk away
I want to speak with them, another memory
Yet my soul turns dead, no emotion nor meaning
And then I collapse, heard and seen by none.

Some days again they pass by
Only to see my forever-affixed smile
Curse my outward lie, and my darkness inside
Why I can't I let myself be with them again?!
