Freefall from the clouds;
never again to chase the horizon;
The suns caution ignored


-Ajm
My first attempt at a haiku.
Alex Sep 2019
Darkness consuming solar luminescence
a new scene revealed as day expired
clubs shine signs of neon fluorescence
men in search for prey, target acquired

An ominous chill befell this night
every neck hair stood at attention
overcast sky now blocking lunar light
changed the mood with aggression

Screams can be heard with clarity
approaching with malicious intent
ran but unable to match in dexterity
evil eyes brimful of sick enjoyment

Scarred by that night forevermore
in attempt to avoid feeling haunted
vowed to set out & even the score
Ironic, the hunter became the hunted

The stars aligned for the perpetrated
what happened then was well deserved
even after death couldn't escape the hatred
when karma catches up don't be perturbed

Demons stalk & provoke
can't escape, no Anastasia
a wolf under sheep's cloak
left begging for euthanasia

Banished & quick to jilt
denied any approval
as the leafs are bound to wilt
it was nothing unusual

Empathy mistaken as weakness
resulted in emotions aloof
appalling was a sight so grievous
the cadaver suspended by noose

-Ajm
There can be no good without evil, light without dark, love without hate. Embrace life and all it entails.
Alex Sep 2019
Hearing constant pestering voices
projected from self animated shadows
distraught by subtle ambient noises
glimpses in peripherals, but never exposed

anxiousness & depression
on top of hallucinating demons
meet a therapist no confession
reality lost, memory fleeting
alternate dimensiom
now an asylum
Devil keeps tormenting
forever attached havoc reeking

From ashes we arose
humanity brimful with incompetence
Contentment in minds closed
humility dominated by pompousness
egotists swiftly defy any opposed

prioritize this main concern
must benefit future generations
to ensure humanity is preserved
before Earth's cataclysmic retaliation
observes as the populous burns
with impeccable acceleration
to ashes we shall return

-Ajm
Short and painfully true.
The future is in the children, but we can build it as they come. So a future is ensured.

Oh sleep
where have you gone: I wish you still cared
do you remember intamate times we shared
why dont we have a love affair
We were such a lucid pair

Oh sleep
I'm so messed up: I miss the way you feel
just us remeber: down forever: we had a deal
this is a dream right: no way this is real
broken that you left: my heart will never heal

Oh come back sleep
i need you ever so deep
without your embrace I'm weak
please come home or for eternity I weep
Just a silly one. Terribly tired

Sworn to silence
a sacred oath
never spoke a word
exactly as told

disease ridden
death bound doctors are certain
waiting behind a red oak door
beholds the grim reaper lurking

6 decades & this vow not yet broken
dragging this imense burden
debates reveling all the unspoken
as if behind a red velvet curtian

decision to tell came much too late.
frantic gasps; hands tight on throat
contemplation actually decided fate
saliva & foam; not a single word said
unintelligible noises is all he had left
both man & secret
officially pronounced dead
