I'Ve Lost Sensation Poem by Rania Hammoud

I'Ve Lost Sensation

Rating: 4.8


</>Things are neither delicious to eat
Nor disgusting to vomit
Everything is tasteless

Whenever I turn around to check the things around
I can hardly see anything
All things had turned colorless

A funeral of all my children, Joy, Pain, Hope, and Torment
Is there at the moment
Oh, I'm childless!

All the castles I've built for everything in me
Are now on ground..Damn!
I turned them homeless

Paralysed I am
No sensation of grief I feel
Nor happiness

Laughing at a time
Crying then once
As if i'm mindless

Look at the sky which waited my complaints to offer a cuddling
As if i heard that tonight a moon would bethere
But i can see nothing.It's moonless!

Oh my heart!
Where are the burdens that caused you pain? !
Even pain had turned painless!

I don't know if life is changing till this extent
Or upon my vision to life a curse is.
Would it be that everything is alright and upon it is a bless?

So confused to predict and so hard to focus is..
Once up once down..So scattered myself is..
I can't even tell if i'm conscious or i have lost my consciousness

I guess i'd rather stop thinking
Take a turning
And go somewhere else.

Look at the sky which waited my complaints to offer a cuddle They told me tonight a moon is there But i can see nothing it's moonless................. look to the blue glowing of iridescence as it enlightens soul by gleams of florence even if void yet i feel delight by resplendence..........quite amazing write by imagery as when curved ingeniously over the rune of earthly resonance, eloquent write of unique genre,10+++, thanks for sharing

Hi Rania - this is a SENSATIONAL POEM - despite the title - I score it a TEN. Good structure eleven compact triplets and enigmatic use of English. The English language is a very good language for poetry - well done. It is a POEM of DESPAIR but there is a glimmer of renewel at the end. In verses ONE to TEN you seem to lose something new in each verse V 1 Taste V 2 Color V 3 Emotion V 4 Achievement V 5 Sensation & Happiness V 6 Your Mind V 7 The Moon V 8 Heart & Sensitivity V 9 Vision of Life V 10 Consciousness. I'm glad that after all that you didn't just jump under train and end it all. V 11 Gives me some hope 'I guess I'd rather stop thinking (about thed past implied?) - Take a turning (good idea to quit the track of despair and negativity expressed in verses one to ten) - And go somewhere else (also a good idea sometimes it is the environment that bugs us) . If this is autobiographical - then act on verse 11 and get out of what you describe as a very negative situation. All the PH members are very suportive. Love you in poetry - JOHN.

You have poignantly expressed a feeling of pain and suffering. But why is so much sadness? Relish it? Or just getting relieved of it? At your age such sad feelings occasionally overtake people. Dont worry. But as a poet u have done ur job excellently.
