Patiently Waiting

Patiently Waiting

A Poem by Shahrier

In the depths of my room, I lay and wait

Dreaming of revenge of the people I hate

But then I think of my nobility and it’s clear to me

Revenge is not part of my personality

 

In the belly of the beast I slowly decompose

Dead from the painfully lethal dose

I cannot fight it; it’s not in my blood

Wash me down with a sudden flood

 

Under the sun I wait as the water drains away from my skin

My blood turns into syrup, my muscles turn skeletal thin

My brain starts to boil in the vessel that’s my head

The vultures fly over me, waiting to be fed

 

In the dark alleyway, I lay on the street bleeding

As the time ticks by, I can feel my life is slipping

A knife dug deep into my back, there is no forgiving

I lay there already dead, from the world I’m slowly fading

 

 As the fire consumes my body, I just lay there silently

I can feel the pain as it keeps on burning me

I can feel its heat as it travels to my very core

They just watch me burn as they stand by the door

 

The lights go out; I’m alone in the dark

Six feet under, left without a spark

The monsters creep closer, I want to scream

Wishing this reality was just a dream

 

As worms feed, I’m eaten alive

Let alone thriving, I can barely survive

The soil and I, becoming as one

Slowly forgotten, remembered by none.

 

Am I not meant for this world, why does it hurt so much?

Is this world just full of blood lust, sickened by my touch?

Cast into the void, why is there so much hate?

Why in the shadows I must lie and wait?
