30 Days Of Poetry, Day16 "Haunted" Pics Inside by lyricalpontiff(m): 6:13pm On Jun 16, 2015 |
I could not sleep last night Even other night to sleep na fight My conscience lifts a weight I’m in need of solutions, my heart deflates I have a big problem Each time I close my eyes I see them Yes I see them all From my bed to the floor to the wall I wish it was a dream But it isn’t, so I melt like heated ice cream They always know where to find me Their presence won’t let me be And they will never leave So every day I grieve I’m being haunted by the passing of time So I sought help by the elements in our clime But the pepper in the night made me cough I choked, the fumes of the atmosphere was tough In panic I crawled behind some trees Tears from the trees wet a hive of bees “Where do I run to?” thoughts ran through my mind I was groping as the fog made me blind Claws of the wind clutched me Tear drops of the clouds touched me The fangs of the night stung me I was speechless as reality hung me I watched the moon stare with a devilish grim The drowsy star in anger went dim I can’t hold down my conscience till infinity If I yield not, the horrors will be eternity For I have made starving beats salivate in anger They need lyrical dishes to quench their hunger My malnourished muse mood swings, so palely Blank pages frown at me daily Similes and metaphors shorn of flesh Figurative formations far from fresh My rhyme pad was a garden, now a thorn bush I head for the labour room, ready to push The more I write, I feel the labour pain My train of thoughts cruises in my brain The cry of the baby breaks the fetters on my conscience As I break free from that horror experience 1 Like
