DisconnectA Poem by Romello SimmonsThis poem was inspired a couple of nights ago because I had a terrible fall out with my family because they didn't support my decision and turn against me.

3:53 A.M Hello,I can't hear you Sorry you crushed my spirits Like what's everyone else's done and the only thing I want to do…is scream I can't hear myself think anymore I losing my sight because I can't see The drug you gave me gave me a losing sense of faith I'm sorry my dreams aren't what they seem I just want to relax and sit back But it's hard with everyone on the favor to attack The poor and wounded soldier I am…I could hardly hear My commander telling me to get back in the game I see the grenade falling and I thought my time was near Hello, come find me in the hookah bar Wasting my dreams with a random stranger Who's too busy yelling at his fiancée Who's cheated on him several times I need someone to listen and understand Or lend a helping hand So find me near the electric fence that dangerous because my life is becoming hazardous Slowly this starting to get difficult because my commander yelling at me Stuck in the time loop of wasting my dreams When they don't believe I can reach them Sorry to hear you think I am worthless and won't do anything Don't remind me of such things because I am a pessimist at heart So go ahead and crush the golden piece of art Hello, can you hear my emotional breakdown Over the pain of the blade cutting at my skin Words so sharp they could be heard over my loud music playing My commander telling me men don't cry because that's for women and babies They don't see I'm bleeding and need the encourage to express how I feel © 2017 Romello Simmons |
