Poetry is one of my favorite things to write right after prose and rap lyrics. Here’s a new poem on my blog about one’s foggy mind at times.
I stand atop a mountain,
But sorrow dwells inside my inner fountain,
My heart races like a rabid dog,
Around my mind there’s a thickening fog,
Memories run rampant like a leaping frog,
While I think of only dirt and smog.
Can I be as free as a bird?
The wind has stirred up around myself,
Positive thoughts begin to shake
The very thing I want to break,
Doubts have turned into a living snake
That bit me hard so to stay awake.
The dizziness I had is now vanishing rapidly
Under the effect of my undying humanity,
So will I be able to keep my sanity?
My body soars like having been on needles,
Hands are trembling while I’m in the middle
Of making a decision for the wrong reasons.
How could I have not known?
That you’ve been in a constant frown,
Why have I gotten you there?
To a point of utter despair,
Was I so scared?
Leaving you alone to fair
Against the all mighty brown bear.
Tears are falling down my face,
As the icy shield around my heart
Begins to fade without a trace,
And I want a fresh new start,
So I turn back, deciding not to be smart.
An overwhelming feeling of guilt
Wants to destroy all I’ve built,
But out of my own volition
I want our bond to come to fruition
As I jump in front to protect you.
Your eyes widen as to eat the sky,
I smile at you as a sign of goodbye,
Both of our hearts would want to fly,
But a thundering blow crushes my spine.
It feels weird…
I don’t smell blood,
There isn’t any red flood,
No waters turning to mud,
Instead I see you deep in sleep
As my hopes lift themselves above the mist.
The bear is no longer a vivid creation,
It was just a figment of my imagination,
Because I know now that I can feel,
The love we have, one that’s real!
