Lisa Mitchell - Incomplete Lullaby
Like a turning head
Like a second look
Like a burning leaf of an open book
Like a pounding sea
Like a messy crime
When your eyes first met with mine
Like a broken word
Like a tragic smile
Like a thousand steps or a single mile
Like a lonely chance
Like a savage glow
When you turned and said hello
I was just about to call
There were flowers on the ceiling
You left me feeling
Like a fading voice
Like a closing door
Like a dozen lies and a dozen more
Like a twisted tongue
Like distant bike
When we broke out in the dark
The stars looked like burning sparks
The lights were warm but chilling
You left me feeling
Tired
Could not close my eyes
On fire
But frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless my words could not melt
Whisper I wanted to shout
With out you I felt
Like a fleeting thought
Like a double eight
Like a gentle fear of a warming taste
Like a placid breath
Like a cooling blow
When you stopped and held me close
Inside I nearly froze
Your touch is almost healing
You left me feeling
Tired
Could not close my eyes
On fire
But frozen inside
To run or to hide
Speechless my words could not melt
Whisper I wanted to shout
With out you I felt
Like a setting sun
Like a last goodbye
Like an incomplete lullaby

I know those words above are so naive...
But those are the depiction of mine, my heart.
You don't have any idea about how hard I fall for him.
You even can't figure it out, the feeling of being fluttered.
Fluttered by no other than love itself.
I got myself and my heart back.
I newly realize that it's still thumping, once I've already found it harshly died.
Like myself is back to its sensibility, never to bewilderment.
Now I'm quite brave to pave my path.
I'm a contented girl ever to own such a blossoming heart.
Wisterias on the top of the highest hill bend themselves in disgrace.
Birds chirp and always chirp in harmony for the morning.
While crows are not necessarily required to sing a requiem as the midnight comes.
Even sun couldn't tempt me with its ray.
Grey skies would turn into serenely blue ones.
Nights and days are merely the matter of time, but you are the matter of my life.
Here and there I shall retrieve my bliss.
The lost bliss the one has despoiled from me.
No more serenades are needed, because I finally have you as my muse, my eternal muse.

So, how's the poetry?
I've made it myself.
I got the inspiration lately.
I'm not good at all in literature, therefore I appreciate your suggestion...
"Incomplete Lullaby" is a song from Lisa Mitchell.
Particularly, not a pop singer. That is one straight point about what makes me love her.
And about the poetry?
Ha ha ha... frankly, I'm not in love. Really.
I enjoy being single at present.
I don't need to shed tears each night, to have another wish, to pretend a smile, to summarize life with love, to suffer heartache, to act clumsy.
So, how come that the song lyrics and the poetry can be connected?
As I told you previously, it's all about inspiration.
I take a crack at mixing two elements together, literature and inspiration.
Lyrics without a bit touch of poetry will be hollow.
Whereas, poetry should be enriched by strong emphasis of literature.
Combine the enthusiasm and inspiration sourced from the song, perhaps I could make a wonderful poetry.
I know that I've been a moody person, neglect this blog then out of the blue, I write down my idea of sadness or excitement here.
But hey, inspiration just can't come easily like rain in wet season.
It's more like planting corn in autumn and then wait for upcoming seasons for harvest.
To imply my whole entry, I'd like to say sorry. Very sorry for letting you down by my carelessness.
I can't vow you not to be as lazy as hell anymore.
But I'll attempt on how to make my entry look more interesting, which created masterfully by my inspiration.
