a poem
My first attempt at english poetry. I know it sounds sucky but that's all i have to say.
The Escapist
Bedtime, at half past three. I stood forlorn, a cold dark night. Lonely, Blinded and Freezing. With all my faith, I prayed for light. Yet when dawn cracks, the night still lives.
"See you tommorow," they would say. And one by one they fall asleep. Until I am left awake. Lonely, I wait patiently. Yet tommorow never comes.
Darkness threathened to engulf my soul. Watery waves wanted to wipe me out. I cried for help but nobody would hear. Still screaming. Lest i' m trapped in this pantomime.
I'm in pain, therefore i exist. Or so i thought. Till a tempest chilled my nerves and made me numb. Indifference was all i'm left with. Longed for the days when i writhed in agony.
When you told me you're a wanderer, I bade my farewell relunctantly. The moment you left the world came crumbling. You made me realise who i am.
