The Words, His World
He used
to seek solace,
in the turbulence
found within
his own
distraught soul.
With
those words,
it brought him
close to
the brim of
yet another low.
In a state
of denial and
self-deceit,
where
peace
could be found.
And where
the lies
glorified truth,
the pain
satisfied
the fears.
But soon
he realized,
that a poet
fails to exist
in
his world.
As his mind
is an utopia,
and his words
conceal
the
hidden tears.
