Poem
Each life has its own story to tell Like when the day faints, the stars shine Or when the sun rests in bed and sunset conquers for a while Or when the day is gloomy, the heaven cries And when the star falls--- we utter requiescat in pace Jenna welcomed the sunrise as she opened her eyes She turned to her wristwatch as she was about to rise The time said "6:59", she doesn't mind 'Tis an ordinary day nor one of a kind She walked not hastily towards the door She left the room with eyes half-closed But eyes widened when darkness is not yet o'er She turned back but her room was gone Then a sudden devilishly evil laugh shattered her very soul She opened her eyes once more but to lean on the wall About the place she ought to know When she stepped her feet forward the wind blew so cold Six steps and she suddenly held her breath That growled from her back tells her she'll be a bread She was shaking but she chose to face She felt like ice as to the wild beast's gaze And her 'tabunon' skin turned pale Dangerous, deep red eyes are burning flames Finger and toe nails are blades Those hungry fangs are about to claim Her young but poor body like a crunchy shrimp But she bet herself no adieu to this nemesis Like a marathon she did And so much passages to drop by! Right or left, both have signs Strange writings man cannot define Oh, poor life! no time to think twice Here comes her nemesis and she wished she bears nine lives Oh, sweat my ever second skin! Feel the warmth of my shattered body and frozen veins! And these tears now I taste This ain't wonderland nor I'm Alice And knees I plead not to faint I'm lost and stuck in this--- oh, labyrinth! But to her horror her feet collapsed The next thing she learned she kissed on the ground It takes a cacophonous moment to burn her down But then she exclaimed her only hope and the wild beast howled The wild beast but passed her and entered a fire abyss She witnessed and hers was a picture of perfect astonishment Though still trembling she searched for her pulse She took a deep breath and tears again poured She reminisced her almost downfall She bears no cat's life but she just received a miracle! She raised her head up high in gratitude And for a minute the darkness fleets in full force She dried her tears and resumed her journey Inside this labyrinth, oh, so dreary! She wandered and wondered what brought her there Perhaps this is a long nightmare... -Part 1
