Nemesis

Nemesis Throbbing pain, relentless, seep inside the marrow of my being, smirking Demonic in its intent to erode, and turn each bone frail then none remain A heart weakened, desperately seek solace, the blind reaching out in vain Fragmented shadow lurks without sound, red unforgiving eyes, menacing! ***An invisible foe, is the toughest to subdue *** --by author-- Penned; 03/15/2022 6:20 p.m. Lake Worth Florida USA

I hope this isn't your experience, Anselmo. Powerful poem and the quote were outstanding. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Thanks for your concern Bill, so far, my life's challenges have not risen to this poem's level yet, and I hope it stays that way. Lol. I'm glad you liked the quote too...ab

A heart- rending, soul piercing write as if there is much pain hardened inside. 'Red unforgiving eyes' suggest much ! Intensely powerful, Anselmo

I used to be quite a sharpshooter back in the day. Now? - Not so much. ~ Shooting with ink i/o bullets
