Poem
Clutches Kiara Lebel I see the battlefields in your eyes The fights lost Engraved in your skin I see a message I feel the sorrow in your trembling lips against mine And as I seek for security in you there is a man I seem to come across There is a man 7 foot, with hands big as bears Hidden in the shadows deep within your soul There is a man with such clutches that raise the bars only to frighten you There is a man that only ones eyes can see, and they are not yours And I ask myself Why can only ones eyes see this man? Why me? For this is not my soul and this is not my skin But when I stare into your eyes I fall deeper inside than you express Who is this man? This is not an angel I see, because when I look into his eyes he drains the life out of me So I ask you What is it that you’re going through? Because when I continue to stare I see you crying inside, and this man is holding you by the hair Run, run away from his clutches Confide in the spirits of forgiveness and forgive yourself You know that he is killing you softly Grab my hand as I look into your eyes and stare into my soul Do you dare to see such an evil man? I believe you do not because I have defeated him He attempted to drown me in the sorrows of his own words Screaming at me END IT ALL! LET IT GO! STOP! STOP! I screamed so loud I scared myself I scared him away And I slept, I slept days in resentment And when I awoke the demon was gone I was saved, so save yourself Before it is too late He wants you to fear him But he is nothing to fear
