Before I Die

Shaunmatthewcpoetry



I'm slaying demons on Doom and Devil May Cry
In reality their invisible to the human eye
Frequencies and inconsistencies
Choose optimism rather than gloomy misery
Whenever tensions may come
Time is a tarantula on the run
Four legs facing one way
Four legs facing the other
The shadow people shiver and shudder
Can we trust our minds?
Does it depend on the medication
That the doctors prescribe?
Just know that I'm still alive
Hopefully answers come before I die

    If it wasn't so serious a theme, I might say 'Oohh, demons? Not today, thank you!' Doh!
    But - hope you come to peace of mind.

      Haha is all good, I'm good now but know some people can't get out the black hole.

      Brilliant, I so relate dear Poet
      (at that last hurrah of breath
      grant me a glimpse
      beyond the veil
      oh universe;
      even for a millisecond
      let me know
      what my life's suffering
      was for...)

        Cheers pal, I posted on another poetry site and a girl said it resonates with her also.

          your poetry get's criminally ignored
          because you cut too deep
          and keep it too real for most!
          for some poetry or writing, is a game
          a magic act where they dot this line
          and word this in some way
          to make people feel this or that
          then they sit back like some
          mind-fuck magician, all superior
          because they used what little intellect they have
          to feed people even more escapist mirages
          to get even more lost in..
          (fck em, do you brother!
          keep it 100, so only
          those with genuine intent
          can see and appreciate your voice!)

            Thanks pal, that's much appreciated, I am slowly building a following doing videos on YouTube which is something, I was posting stuff on TikTok also but stopped as wasn't really making an impact and people only seemingly go on there for dumb shit.
