[Poem] The Leak
The Leak
by
yamikakyuu
I think, but it does not stay
because the faucet in my brain
drains my memories from my head.
They gather with my tears
which flow from all the years of
disappointment, lies and craziness.
I start feeling jaded, unappreciated
while waiting for the stars above
to slowly die away.
The moon casts a frown
while she looks down onto
what her soft glow illuminates.
The gentle light pierces down
through the depths of my stubborn soul.
It asks,why is it I who has to find
the line of silver of the cloud in the sky.
Shadows of thought dance around
I cannot see them, they make no sound.
My mind is bruised, it's pale and weak.
My mind is empty, I must fix this leak.
Wrote this in college for my Creative Writing class I had. Wrote it at 2am, I remember not being able to sleep and finally getting up and this just came out. Weird how stuff happens like that XD This also won POTW 8 on AO way back in the day. POTW = Poem of the Week.
