Lament Of A Broken Heart Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

LAMENT OF A BROKEN HEART

melvin banggollay



Breathing is out of cadence

as sobbing is out of tune

for my heart feels no sense

being pricked by misfortunes.



Rain of tears without sequence

keep falling without refrain

with cowing cries so immense

as my heart moans in vain.



Overwhelmed with recurrence

of a cheating heart fumes

with lies of poisonous scents,

My life almost lost its tune.



Kind words from my friends

tenderly soothed my pains

slowly devouring my defense

Until acceptance had its gains.



Every time I wake up so late

from deep sleepless night,

I behold memories of my fate

with sword of striking knight.



Neither the cool season's smile

Nor the moon's tender light

can throw away my pains a mile

except for my love's delight.
