Journeys


Poem Artwork

The time has come..

For all to end..

No more lies..

No pretend..

No more pain..

No more tears..

No more poetry..

Of long sorrowful years.

No more blame..

No childhood faults..

Look in the mirror..

To see you the cause..

Perhaps you are broken..

Cannot be fixed..

Can't blame society..

Can't blame your past..

Can't even blame yourself..

For what is done in cast.

To sleep is a world of nightmares..

To live is a world of pain..

To watch yourself ruin..

What God gave you

in his name..

Was not the plan..

Can't see beyond tomorrow..

Can't hold on to today..

Can't control what my mind knows..

Must come to pass..

Yes, It is time ..

Time to set them free..

In time they will see..

The only one holding back

their happiness..

Was none other than

me.....

To me..this was a hauntingly beautiful...wonderfully said and yet frightful in its subtle way. Excellent piece.
