Where have you been?
I've searched for you
Did you search for me?
We've been waiting and waiting
Did we lose you in some evil blind alley ?
By all accounts
They found you and they tried to drown you
Dousing your incandescent glow
They stole your shoes and your clothes,
Hit you with stones, broke your bones,
froze your apocalyptic prose
So no one will never discover their failed experiment in their immoral show
Went into far-fetched tirades
To make YOU look like a conniver and a depraved
Didn't they hear brevity is the soul of wit
or that it's a sin to always acquit the guilty?
What a shame you were reborn
And you'll now unravel all of their faults
Everyone around the world
Will learn their atrocity and your woe
How they gave you a death penalty
Without letting you pronounce upon this matter of yours
Yet we were all in shock
When the bell knelled
your slow and painful death
While we thought you'd always fend for yourself
It's a pity you were reborn
And they thought you were forever gone...
Now their journey draws to its close
For your prose unfroze
And their atrocities will be divulged
Their horrid crime will see the daylight
Don't live in fright!
time will put back together your bones
Your story will be written anew
And all of them will get their due
Don't sorrow for unreturned tommorows!
You'll still hear warbles from sparrows!
You'll still outshine the antiheros!
Haven't you heard Patience is a virtue?
Just wait and in a little while
God will come to your rescue

Well worded Neilton this challenge from the grave and beyond a metaphor I take for slights suffered in a past poetic life now like Lazarus returned from the grave to pronounce justice upon past offenders. Yes indeed I have missed you along with a few others that seem to have fallen by the wayside. My ears not acute enough, my brain not astute enough to see the executions have waited for their resurrection. Hope to hear much more.
first of all thank you so so much for your kind words they mean more than you could ever imagine!!im so glad you mentioned Lazarus cause as a christian myself i read it from that perspective and it was so so intriguing!! also ive noticed too that some have disappeared from my poetic side and i truly miss them ! Unfortunately ffor me its my last year of high school and im really anxious and the exams are reallyyy hardd so i stop sometimes and i dont post but i write poems every single day !! but once its summer ill get back on track .Thank you so much for your support
