CODE SAD MODE
By Leon Enriquez
My heart knows how love hurts
Blush of wild fling casts dirt
By day sad dreary hues
By night pain comes on cue
My soul feels turmoil brief
As sadness marks high grief
My distress gropes and sways
Now I feel slow time slay
My pain seeps through my veins
I feel loss pique disdain
Upon my bed I feel
Fatigue as hurts distills
~~~~~~~~~
My tale of anguish drains
Cold blaze burns all in vain
Yet pain grounds me right here
A slave as fear endears
My days are spent most sad
My heavy heart now mad
Hides in dark empty feel
As burdens cluster spill
My night stains dreary dwell
Beyond lost charms that tell
Love is a bloated gist
Beyond the broken list
~~~~~~~~~
My quest greets a sad mode
Blush of unease stains code
The choking knot binds pain
A hangman’s rope now drains
My deluge of sadness
Chokes a certain madness
I try my best to run
Yet my pain exults pun
My touch and feel grinds rut
Unveils unease that cuts
Abide with bloody thaw
Of anxious feelings raw
~~~~~~~~~
My madness feels extreme
Pain gathers rancid cream
Slice of misadventure
As hurts bleed odd censure
My eyes sense dark night groom
Loss of light in this room
I sit with dark shadows
As odd feelings swallow
My late trip gains a grip
As melancholy rips
Dismay whips the sad tale
Stern defiance thus prevails
~~~~~~~~~
My plight decrees sad flight
Blind afterglow put right
If only I can see
The way things now can be
My way to face this strife
To simply live this life
Through a winding journey
That mellows ecstasy
My poise of story line
A pickle in life’s brine
To find the rainbow here
In tints that arouse cheer
