Poem
The tub is my kettle and I’m busy dicing My tears will be the icing on this cake This knife holds no reason to be fake And if I will it, it will surely take Take my life that is just waiting to break I’m betting that these incandescent lights will be the witnesses to the last seconds of my life Tonight was long and it’s soon to be gone A day is 24 hours long But I wonder how long I’ll be remembered after I’m gone And as I bleed I take my seat On the curb for anyone to understand me is absurd So have you ever heard the sun rise And have you ever swam in vanilla skies Can you decipher truth from lies Well I’m glad to know someone still dare tries And now the moonlight makes love to the light of day From hazel to grey I think now that’s the way It makes me proud and my heart pounds in flutters And the sun peaks over the horizon And the light that leaks sneaks through the old oak Then cuts through me like butter I manage to choke up a final verse Thank you for making my heart flutter With a cool breeze my body shutters An unfamiliar feeling is caught stealing my attention I must mention that it took all this to show My heart that the world can still glow But maybe this came too slow I must let you know That no longer does my heart wish to go The sky of grey carried an insemination of a brand new fascination My heart has begun a regeneration Once again I feel the will to fight Every stab will scab And if I’m lucky one day I’ll nab a piece of happiness But until I see the light at the end of the tunnel I’ll shoot through the night In hopes that a blind old fool can find the right path This shadow of an aftermath will walk quietly through the room Trailing behind memories of agony and gloom Once I find a piece of bliss I shall turn around with a smile and beckon bring me that doom I’m begging to be consumed Place me where ever has room I have a pocket full of change So where is my cab across the river sticks I’m a final fix with a pocket full of tricks Shall we make this quick I’ll let you have your pick
