SavedA Poem by Mugisa AloysiusThis poem outlines what a sinful young person gets through. How addictive their sin and evil it has been. And It seeks salvation at the end which finally surfaces.Saved I did it once, then twice and thrice I cannot get enough of the stance, To perspirations, I arise Voices repeating at the back of my head “Do it, Go on, don’t stop” they said. The feeling is incomparable, imponderable Treasure in my hand, I can’t let go I don’t know if sharing wound make it any
better, but I will try, It hurts, it breaks, it destroys me, I am
bone dry These demons keep killing my joy, I comply Depression drags me into giving in, It draws me to fear this very deadly sin Unworthy it labels me its next of kin, I’ve spent my whole life trying to run
from that feeling A feeling of loneliness, one that is
unbecoming I need comfort, I need healing, this is
defueling I can’t do this on my own, am weak When I kneel down to pray, I still can’t
speak I can’t contain this anymore, not even for
a week. I quit listening to these voices, I am packing my bags, and leaving these
places I refuse to be a slave and won’t take your
doses Got someone who loves me when am voiceless You knew I’d find a way out sooner or
later And I found my escape in the form of a
Savior. © 2021 Mugisa AloysiusAuthor's Note
