EGO SUM DEFESSUS

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

It is true that I am weary
Tomorrow just more pain
The sunshine doesnt touch me,
Nor did the falling rain.

Homeless in my heart
My soul rejects the day
The paler moonlight scorns me
Another night to slay.

For your hours are not my hours.
They weep and stretch to dawn.
The barbed wire of my soul
 Heart broken and so cold.

    This is stunning. Your rhyme so natural and I truly felt every bit of emotion. Kudos

    yes, if we were all as brave
    and admitted our shadow thoughts
    we all relate
    get's harder with each passing day
    to sip from that positivity cup
    of salty tears..
    laud your sincerity, thanks for sharing
    luckily bleak is not a colour
    adorning our skies
    just passing greys and brooding wrathful heatwaves
    then back to blue comforts and puffy clouds
    of rarely gifted levity...

    The sunshine and rain can’t touch you. Must be Hammertime.
