No Illness

No Illness

A Poem by Bejn Jonathon Edwards

Romance is a dying entity
dragging me slowly
feeding on the last remnants
of my shattered existence
So I framed all my letters
and placed them above my bed
cause maybe I'd dream
of all the times I could have had

 

But I was tangled in barbed wire lies
I lacerated myself just to avoid
facing my own mortality
and my own mistakes
I swore I was fine
but they wanted to take me away
a defected product
to be placed in a broken home

 

So the leisions remained
and I had to give in
I stepped into darkness
passed Heaven without a care
You all told me I was depressed
and I replied I'm just honest

I may be cynical but I'm not
'one of them'

 

I eventually got sick of this
so I left my home
tried to find the sun in the dead sky
but found there was nothing
I even wanted it to rain
but Nature was unforgiving
in the state of decay
She wanted me to join her
and become no one
