THE ROAD I DREAD

 

please… not this road  

the road I dread over the years 

finally becomes the road I must journey 

even if against my will 

I was the being that soothes people 

lighten up their darkness with my little candle 

gave them hope and morale 

I never knew my own turn has come 

I ventured and loved blindly 

believed so much that my heart was safe 

safe? I was dreaming without sleeping 

she yanked me and push me off the cliff 

I was broken to pieces 

left shattered beyond recognition 

I couldn’t pick myself up to mend 

I later become suicidal… I just didn’t realize it 

then.. down so hard I fell

like a meteor vaporizing to explode 

I landed thunderously to the ground 

oh, I’m the one typing this, thank heavens, I’m alive 

inhumane as I become 

a huge sore and hollow in my heart 

I became a monster within 

frightening myself in my mirror reflection 

this same road I dread 

now I’m walking on it endlessly 

grief, sorrows, pains and suicide accompanies me 

yeah, I see my shadow with four others
