Fertile disappointments
dissipate on the dew
of life’s blossoming joy
as I cry cubes of fury
bury my head in the dirt
watching my lurid past lives
drain me of my vigor
Weary of those too old to care
as the youthful tears
seep through the hairs
on my back I watch the fate
of the fallen & the fortunate
get stolen away and never
be given back as one day
fades into the next so I cry
out loudly shouting stomping about
asking for answers like
when will this life end????
When will I get what I
so rightfully deserve a wonderland
for the disturbed I live in
a shroud of fear
crowding my being tearing me up
from the inside-out
I live to ponder wondering
if I could travel back
would I do things differently
The truth bonks me on the head
like a rotten hard-boiled egg
to live that way is to suffer daily
I struggle to surmise wisdom
from the blisters on my brain
The same twisted events
are happening day by day
I’m trying to see the light
as the dark drags me down
a black hole where pain remains
like a luminous star
that had blinked out eons ago
but still sheds its rays of dismay
down upon these darkened days
fate’s deception keeps us shackled to ourselves
