Kofi ye Oct 2020
i went off grid
    in search of peace of mind
but guess what i found
      i found chaos awaiting me
in the fortress of my solitude
peace was nowhere to be found
         only broken mirrors on the floor
reflecting anxiety in every frame
the skeletons of paranoia creeped out of every closet i opened...

memories
low-key fading away
as i run out of pigment
black is the only color at my disposal
please escuse my dark pictures
the future looking dim
so it’s best i express with silhouette
Kofi ye Oct 2020
Depicting galaxies in my head
when i close my eyes

The visuals only i can see
though my eyes cannot see

The power of the mind
to paint pictures without pigment

My imagination running wild
no excuse not be creative today....

i assume
that everyday
you talk to someone
but when was the last time
you had a conversation with yourself

you give
a lot of hugs
to people  
but do you ever hug yourself
Kofi ye Oct 2020
heart on my sleeve
laying breathless
i had lost all hope
but the unexpected happened
a unicorn came to my aid  
and
gave me life
it came with a cost
i read the terms and conditions
it was an equivalent exchange
i accepted it
she became my life support
maybe that was too risky
what’s the worse that could happen ?

[pause]

the
void
i
once
escaped
is
back again
and this time
it’s
eating me up
   slowly
when will it stop?
Kofi ye Oct 2020
looking
through my gallery
to find the epitome of throwbacks
to be posted on social media
the struggle
i’m tired
thinking out loud
on what’s really important
the memories gone
or
the present ?
dear reader please enlighten me
Kofi ye Oct 2020
how
many times
can your feelings
be respawned
till
you
become
numb

this ain’t
no video game
stop playing with your  feelings
