Life has passed me by......
For 24 years,
I have cribbed and cried
My heart has dried.
Foes have emptied their arsenal on me
Friends have sent me bouquets of betrayal.
My address is but a skeleton of woe,
I have an onerous burden to tow.
Links have been shed; of once prized chains,
My loved ones have pinced me with daggers of pain.
Capital murder and crimes of sin
I have committed on my kin;
I lay quiet for my blood to spill
The lion inside awaits its kill.
You played with my feeling like a toy,
I’m not a child to be held coy.
The apple of evil has split, hence recoil.....
My destiny has un-named future toil.
Blinded and succulent with lust and turmoil,
The cheery of desire stirs death to a boil.
