7-Minute DrabbleA Poem by shayneJust what an angry, creative mind can do in 7 mminutesThe rhymes felt right
But not impressive They talked of my pains Never too complete I wasn’t ruining the future But I’ve given up to live Don’t want life to be harder Yet afraid it’d stand still A thousand dreams I’ve wanted Couldn’t get a grip I lost it when I surrendered But hope never seemed to leave I’ve wanted things to be over Apart from the common instinct to live My heart aches for compassion And an understanding gaze I feel wrong-er everyday Never a good deed to show I was failing at every step No mistake could make me grow I tried to runaway Took a risk by giving up The sorrows never surrendered The demons are heating up I’ve dreamt to be a hero With a red cape to save lives Never thought of the dangers This obsession has become I was a child of great passion Hopes that could light up the dark But things spiraled out of control And words for the wrongness Will never be enough © 2010 shayneAuthor's Note
