The Open Gate

Personification's

If you listen carefully to the depths of the evergreen,

            you’ll hear the bitter moans and sorrow cries, of Suffering and Longing.

            The brother and sister duet, that can’t be with out each other.

            They’ll stalk you together, with their rag and regret.

            Raised by the whip of mother Pain and the low self esteem of father Dough.

 

When they left their parents in a horrid escape, they shouldn’t have gone to Uncle Greed

            who made Suffering suffer, when he took his life away.  

            Now Suffering walks with a limp, of the agonizing pain in his leg.

            He shouldn’t have taken his baby sister, to Aunt Depression.

            For when she killed her self the little girl was damaged.

            She cries and morns for the one she called mom, who she though would take her     away from the burning scars.

They come into your house, and invite themselves in, not caring if they’re welcomed or not.

             A family member they will choose, to bring down to their level too.

            So be observant, because they’re sneaky.

            They’ll torture they’re vitamin by suffocation, taking ever last breath and ounce          happiness from them.

            Be careful because if they stay too long, their family traits will soon resurface.

            For with too much Suffering, they will become greedy,

            or too much Longing, they will become depressed.

            You can stop them by stopping one thing,

            The pain and dough that the person brought up, should be dealt with sure enough.

            Don’t be fool by a small smile, or a cheerful attitude.

            Just look in their eyes because they’re an open gate, an open gate to whom inside.

            You’ll see Suffering and Longing standing by.
