"loathly" poems
Lovely night, precious night
Happy birthday comes but one day
Blow the candle's head out
Lovely dresses, precious dresses
Party's started; I'm heavy hearted
But a smile for you shall sprout
Lovely whiskey, precious whiskey
Slowly numbs the mind's thumbs
Dawns skirmish now a blemish
and I'm dancing all about
Lovely bliss, precious miss
I found and brought you one last round
but i can't find you to remind you
to my cause i am devout!
Loathly night, nervous night
In a corner with your former
holding hands and making out
Loathly friend nervous friend
party’s ending, I’m pretending
not to let my anger sprout
Loathly club, nervous club
Find a taxi with just one seat
For dusk’s blemish will be a skirmish
and we’ll be dancing all about
Loathly sleep nervous creep
not a word or just a verb
so as to blind me and remind me
To my cause i am devout...

I see nobody by my side,
a certain urge of plunge ignited beside…
But with my soul left all alone,
I find no one correcting me when ‘m wrong…
It’s human to err and to learn,
through one’s rise and his fall…
But eventually I see myself staring,
entirely broken in the mirror on the wall…
And hear the voices that echo deep,
through inhuman brute yield that creep…
The loathly sound persistent every night and day,
with gruesome hate THE MAN IN THE MIRROR say…
“look at me, when ‘m talking to you,
perhaps I see you’re looking through…
That gleam in your eyes that has now fade,
not enough to make yourself persuade…”
I find myself see blood in his eyes,
and the unending solitude in the skies…
I see the pain healing when I pray,
now & then when I crave for redemption each day…
The cruel intentions, when I see ‘m not satisfied,
the chores, the day dreaming which has now died…
All of the measures, desperately off the scales,
making me believe that I see myself, and nobody else…
I see the guilt beneath the shame,
standing still, with eyes laden on the mirror pane…
Sears of grief stricken life that remains,
and the truth in my lies seem so insane…
