Misery

Draped in silence, and misery

How much further, to wander?

Hiding the dead, burdened

The desire has awoken.

 

Mountains of time, passed

Moments of passing, lost

How much greater, the wonder?

The perfect era has come,

To clothe me in light, desertion

Among a crowded swarm.

Eternity looked back at you.

With slavering eyes.

You did not mind?

 

Eternity held your hand

In the darkening bliss

Of the craved apocalypse.

And you did not mind?

don't ever feel restricted by rules.

Inside me there is

A playground of ageing dreams

There lying with the receipts

Though the more i think

The less I know who to be

"I ask you for your forever - eternity

To guide me, I know I can trust you

My dearest companion

Of the dark

I know I can trust you."

 

"So please, one more time

Let me your hand?

And gaze again, across the table

Into my eyes

Before the dark comes

I know I can trust you."

This is not a haiku

 

I am not a chain

That ties your heart to my mind

I am only a human

Scared of losing you

Give me something more

Whistle another fucking tune

Before i scream forty six and two

A useful idiot made of me

Choked her dreams on eulogies

Pain and comfort my reflection

of a patient pushing it down

Into the bowels of the aenima

And fear schisms contort the face

While paranoia tears me up

In tears over the pot

Starving for 10,000 days

and more.

A darkness stilled me

So I left the door open

Black boy the system is set up for you to fail

Drug dealer, gang member, prisoner, DEAD

This is the future they set up for you, and right now

You excel

Their spirit is fed

Why do you accept what they planned

Educate yourself academically, mentally and spiritually

You have armed yourselves with guns and knives

Thinking you a soldier, YOU TO YOUNG TO DIE

Someone look at you wrong, you think he have to dead
