Old Pale Felix

DrichThePoet

~From "Heart And Strings Collection"~

 

 

Felix once solid

now in debt to arid.

Never ain’t the first 

victim of such circumstances,

for those who knew

never doubted it’s coming.

 

His youthful minds 

clogger around the winds

of fastball of life.

Gone are when you 

find joy in what you do,

now you stick 

to your phone 

viewing the trends of diaspora,

and I sit beside mine too. 

 

Smart Felix don’t go tipsy 

in name of youth abc.

Let the past be past,

you’ve done your worst

and if you didn’t 

it’s your lost.

 

You’ve accused 

and blessed,

me your blood.

In all things I’m grateful to you.

 

You look yellow,

don’t be flattered it’s just fellow.

In this you are Othello

I want to end and say hellođź‘‹.
