A Poem by Jeff

7 senses of 7 dooms

As I peer into the great beyond

All I see is a vast emptiness

Shattered dreams

Empty promises

Goals unfulfilled

Potential never realized


Fear of a disease

That might be killing me

Slowly, effectively

Was it caught before it's too late

Or will I become another statistic

Gone before I could see my son grown


Fear of betrayal

That I'm not the only one in her eye's

Late night messages

Sexual pictures

I want to forgive

I want to forget

How much is the truth

How much to feed my ego


Fear of letting myself go

Into a deeper mental state

Fear of what I will see

What I will feel

I've seen them before

I can't see them with her


7 senses of 7 dreams

The nameless fears await

While the named

Tear me apart

Feeding on my own ego

Poisoning my mental state

~ excruciating poetry... but just so brilliantly written... ~ sometimes, i think that we have to face these situations to learn how to preserve our sanity on our own... ~ i hope things get better soon...
