Fantastic poem, Malak! Yes, we should cry out our emotions, our fears and frustrations. (By doing do we learn more about what we’re going through.) Sharing our pains encourages others to do the same.
Excellent turn of focus created by your wordplay on “pyre” and “lyre.” For all our “degrading fears,” there is hope of triumph, a great harmony within awaiting. We only have to listen and sing the angelic tune. I love your use of the musical refrain, very like Shakespeare. Excellent poem!! By Linda Powers O’Dell
Regrets Fly
Flaming fever fires fly,
Fly into the night sky,
Raise your voice and cry.
Fal la la la la la
Cry out your emotion,
Feelings of despair, confusion,
Give them free reign to perception,
Fa la la la la la
Share to teach so others
Express sensations plaguing their powers
Of cheer that ends in tears,
Fa la la la la
Tears of lament whose fire
Burns hotter than the sun’s pyre,
Yet, prevailing over them in great success is a lyre
Fa la la la la
Lyre of angelic tunes create harmony
From within, reveling in the conspiracy
Of triumphing over degrading fears of being followers.
Fa la la la la
