By Churchil Ajunyia
My heart burned with pain
The pain I felt was enough to start another hell
Bells rang in my mind
Clocks tick tocked louder
No one could understand me
Not even the all ears mirror that rudely kept mimicking me
Not even my loyal shadow that was dumb to give advice
I gabled my own tears that I nearly got chocked in
Locked in a room all I could do is talk with my mind
I was afraid of the truth in light
My favorite color wasn’t white,but black
Color of darkness
The color that left me to walk in sadness and live in madness
The tears I released were not enough of a comfort as it always is
They only kept on blurring my sight
Made me even more blind.
Living a life like mine was never easy
Everything always seemed out of place
No matter how I try to replace
They always seemed displaced
Everyday was winter and summer
I felt my destiny was bitter or just in this world I was wrongly placed
I wanted reality not knowing I was living at its heart
I wanted truth not knowing its what burns in my heart
Burning and stabbing me from all sides inside.
