A moment of silence
For the soul
That keep on fighting
In an upside down feeling

A moment of silence
For the truth
That has been told
From your lips
That shed me with tears

Check the safe
Nothing about me.
Swift steep stride
Getting nowhere in life
I close my eyes
Hoping there's enough time.

Ayesha
Picked nails, bleeding lips,
aching teeth in screeming sheep
I'm an anxious wolf.

And I'm howling soundlessly in a valley full of succumb beings

The short verses that I write may be beautiful but it's the long, raw poems where I truly reside.
