Penastory: I Wasted My Young Years On You by Abisoyee(m): 8:10am On Jan 23, 2016 |
http://penastory.com/2016/01/23/i-wasted-my-young-years-on-you/ They say to love a writer is the best thing in the world I believed them and yes they were right Odd places I found myself writing you poems, I cared not about the business of the road Nothing but a skinny little brat but alas in my pen I found might To the world you are a burning star In my world you shone brighter than a galaxy Twinkling and beckoning like diamonds from afar My heart always in a galloping frenzy An eternity with you is all I wanted But now death’s sting will I gladly welcome than to have that old wish granted Your glory was but a mirage Underneath your painted splendour was nothing but a filthy rag Your crimson lips drip venomous spittle Help! My mind is left in an unsolved puzzle I learnt too late that all that glitters is not gold You are but flashy metal I no longer wish to behold Alluring daughter of Eve Walk away now as I no longer wish to grieve I wasted my young years on you; fascinated by your flashy hue I tilled your land seeking to strike gold You were never real, now I am left feeling blue Rust, filth and mud is your mould Find more interesting literary pieces on www.penastory.com 3 Likes 1 Share
