TO LIVE AGAIN (12-01-2012)
Existing…..
In this grisly grotto of endless void
Shivering amidst turbulent thoughts..
…cold…..so cold….
Sightless…heedless…devoid of emotions
Mindful of the encroaching darkness
That would birth an expected despair
Howling wind in mindless rage
Screaming as in laborious pain
Mirroring my emotions…my aches…my dejection
In the twilight…I seek the hidden light
Like a drunken wanderer…clueless
…tossed about in the tempestuous storm
Knowing the timeless light lurks around the corner
Read the rest of the poem Show less
like the maiden’s nut…..waiting…just waiting
to be uncovered…hatched…liberated
In my pitiful existence
clarity becomes me…
As I search…seek…fearful…to say the least
That in the expected discovery…illumination
…hides an even deeper darkness
I shiver still
…uncontrollably
Like undulating leaves…on a windy night
…the flapping wings of an eagle reborn
I seek to gain insight…into this turbulent existence
I search for purpose…..for reason
Asking…not for the thousandth time…..
To stop existing…and start living.

About Me
About me
I enjoy Poetry and have been scribbling my rambling thoughts on paper for over 30years since i was a little girl. I have received favorable reviews over the years but has never been published because i always felt my thoughts were private. I'm only now collating my writings with the intention of finally 'sharing' and seeing my work in print. Would appreciate your contributions and criticisms. I hope i am in the right place.
Location: Nigeria, Lagos
