The Last Stanza

gold

I'm back out of track

the tragedies you breed in the farm of your heart
keep me alive
living
amidst the songs of L. Cohen
in between lines sung by a voice
that almost wishes it had not spoken

You send me regards
I send you regrets

I'm always glad you stand in my way

the clashing of gold and diamond
produces no metal
no stone
only music
that sparkles like a diamond
and glistens like gold

I liked the line.

Your poem is really beautiful. My favourite line is: " the tragedies you breed in the farm of your heart keep me alive, living."

And the images that the poem creates are striking and brilliant; they have a separate and a stand out effect from the meaning it conveys.Combined, they really achieves the effect that poetry is supposed to create: an aura of mystery that one cannot help but go back to again and again...
