Here I Lie

Here I Lie

A Poem by Kenneth Nicholas Lowe



Here I lie
Mind, body and soul
In un-comforting dreams
But none will know
As well as I
My horrors and my screams

None will be acquainted as I
The man of golden dreams
To heal a world as broke as I
Towards a light that's lost its gleam

The light has faded to a glimmer
A glimmer, I now, struggle to find
I think the fools are better set
To live in this world as lies

A fool, I wish I was at times
My mind is but, a pest
I'd drag myself to the steep where I
Could leap my body and soul to rest

To rest my body in a quiet stream
My mind, shall find too shallow
For all my hopes and all my dreams
In the abyss, My soul shall find to narrow

To rest my mind inside a box
I fear, my soul won't fly
To lay it down, below the docks
My body will return on tide

To set my soul on fire, I'd hate
To leave my body disfashioned
To hang it to a ceiling's fate
Is to tie my mind without love's passion

So, Here I lie
And patiently await
In un-comforting dreams
In daily wages of a life
For nature to succumb my screams
