The words flow freely from my pen, Like tiny demons haunting, taunting. The whys and why nots, Like tickling, torturing tentacles, Tease my brain, telling me I am insane. They steal away the peace I once thought came with age, Yet now age and time are my worst enemies. I hear the pitiful cries of lost dreams, Lamenting desperately, hopelessly for revival, Writhing in the agony of unrealization. They will not die, But only suffer endlessly, Imprisoned by circumstance. I smell the foul stench of conformity, Wrenching from my grasp and dragging from my reach, The things that I want, The things that I need, The things that need me. I watch, like a movie, My life as it should be. The scenes play out without a plot, Yet still they enthrall me. The actors waft about like apparitions, There, then gone, Speaking in cryptic dialogue. I laugh, I cry, I feel at home. And then the lights come up. They blind me, sicken me, I feel I may throw up. The medicine will heal me soon. I feel the warmth already. Soon I will rest. True peace WILL come at last. |
