Poems
May 2018
the semi-colonist
the basement of depression
was where i learned my lesson:
temptations of death
are the feed of bad thoughts
i had to decide
to leave those habits behind
- it left me homeless
but in hope was where i lived.
under the bottom of rocks
life found ways to throw me down
But i kept on going
even if it meant by crawling
up the basement's stairs
i had no sight
but i was desperate
for something bright
So, i kept on going
kept on crawling
dragging myself
closer to light
