DemonsA Poem by Jesse LandryIts a poem about disfunction, loneliness and suffering. A single mans fight with his own demons
Thoughts do circle round a mind that still is steady reeling
Spiraling up towards a blackened portion of my ceiling Like a putrid decomposing dessicated patch of skin a necrotizing smile slowly turns itself into a grin Now you might ask, how can that be? See seems to me most definitely Oh yes, certainly Seems we could be on our merry way straight towards catastrophe As addicts stuck inside an attic, a labyrinthine design Self inflicted flagellation is how we would define Lets not forget the wicked wicked webs that we all weave The truth you seek is waiting, first your head from shoulders cleave Sleepless nights and restless days become a blur blend into a haze Still fighting, hoping, writing, coping, waiting for the better days To Sweep me off my feet again and vaccinate from older ways There must be an answer to the question i was told But searching is much like a miner always looking for his gold For every push does come a shove and its been this way since days of old Since the dawn of time, the shadows swallow all the light Rays of hope will come disguised to always try and set things right Fear not for the lost feel nothing for the lonesome son Because no matter what the cost His journeys always solitary and not once has he ever Truly Won But the beauty is within the journey, not the destination So please save your tears and wipe away that look of consternation All it does is waste the little time that may still remain Instead ill take you by the hand and maybe we can fly again Use the stars like stepping stones and dive into the sea the sea of many faces, all still stare at you and me But in the sea i see a way, its a free new way to be taken away who knew today would be so full of what may or may never be Is this truth or is this more nonsense crafted just for me Are you Confused? Dont be See It is just Murphy’s law what can will happen usually just normally not as fast as you wanted it to be Ok now please tell me something,, are you sad or happy? Neither? Well then thats ok, ive run out of things to say ive run out of ways for me to make a mockery in rhyme while attempting to make sense of a jumbled, ruined, morbid mind Now get out, my mind is mine, confined and mined it was til mediocrity came crashing down upon a mentally defunct, dilapidated morose malcontented mother f****r who will always stand up opposite Oppose the falsely spoken truths, so tired of all this bullshit my very soul a shadow pinned oh to hell with yall im done here, F**K IT © 2016 Jesse Landry |
