Walayee Poet Lay Whitlock-Ishway Poet Rhyme

Tragedy In Me

Who I am when no one sees

a pit of blackness overcomes me

 

all hopes lost to depressions disease

desire claimed by minds tragedy

 

This tragedy is ME

 

 

A broken soul closed in

bleeding heart of memories begin

 

replaying scenes of dark and grim

inflicting torture again and again

 

This is My tragedy within 

 

 

No food, no drink, no air

no sleep; a living nightmare

 

into demon eyes I stare 

I have no courage or fear

 

This tragedy... My Tragedy

is everywhere...

 
Lay

Nicola Noo April 9, 2012 at 4:29 AM I can relate to this. Nice poem.

Carolyn Devonshire March 15, 2011 at 3:10 PM This is an astonishing description of depression, Lay. I hope you aren't really feeling this way. Guess we all have moments when the strife catches up to us and all we can see is "tragedy everywhere." A compelling poem, dear. Love, Carolyn
