As I Kiss The World Good-bye (poem) by AnthCunny(m): 7:34pm On Jul 04, 2019 |
AS I KISS THE WORLD GOODBYE By Ojei Emmanuella Ngozi As I kiss the world goodbye Sitting here with no more feelings The feeling of existence and being human I no longer possess Those peaceful chirps from the morning birds As they queue up excitedly on the gigantic cedar tree Outside my window, like an orchestrated choir Suddenly no longer amuse me I long for greater promises above all I see before me To you friends, I know you will be the first to wail Epistles of greatness I possess, You will proclaim to the world The constant help you have rendered to me you will acclaim How you would have to help more only if I have asked you will lament Well I say thank you, Thank you for your claims, thank you for being you For the days you backstabbed me I say......... gracias! Indeed u pluck spears from my eyes Even though you neglected the several in your own eyes Then the spears from my eyes, My heart you use to dismember You were quick to judge me to the world A river-full of tears I have donated for your sake As I kiss the world goodbye To acquaintances Sometimes you regard me as sweet Maybe to please me I guess Then most of the time, I am the devil you see Well, thank you! Thank you for making me feel unwanted And in my face proclaim love to me Those thousand storms, For your sake I have sojourn Never in a hurry will I dispatch I hope you got all you wanted from me The bucket I mean to kick And unfair of me will it be Without first raising to you a final..... Aloha! Or better still.......... Au revior As I kiss the world goodbye I imagine how it will be, Men will lift my once underrated body, Which of course would have been adorned, With those clothes I never got to wear Flowers will reside all around me When in days I had sought for one of those sweetly perfumed roses, But never have I received any Aaah!...... My heart breaks and from my eyes tears freely escape You were always needing me And I was always there, But when I needed anyone, A thousand miles they will be away from me Ouch!........ I wish I never remember these days anymore As I kiss the world goodbye To........ mi familia You were always there, Always expecting more, Making sure i understand, That I am a burden you we're meant to carry For a sickly child, what is to be expected Times before I had tried to make you see "I did not create myself this way" But now...... I don't want to know anymore Hmmm!......... Maybe you were right, I don't belong here, I never did, Sorry for the bother, Thank you for letting me see the world, But now I want to go away This way I won't bother you anymore, Even at death I still acclaim you as my beloved I don't judge you, I only admire your courage, Keeping up with a "problem " like me is a job, A blacksmith, Who bends those stubborn irons into adorable objects Could have never coped, Like a more stubborn iron, I have proved unbendable over the years For all I say thank you As I kiss the world goodbye I plead to my creator, Do not reject me, for in your bosom I come I have one last wish, That I will come visit the world again But has a more better person Who deserves all the love the world has to offer As a stronger person, who can take all what life throws at me As a better person, That brings smile to every face, I meet As a selfless person, That makes the world a better place for others And not just myself As a resilient heart, Who will not take suicide as an option, To run away from crisis As a freedom fighter, Who will fight and curb the ills of the society As a me, That will love all, Even when I don't feel their love I will believe in their smiles, And reside in any amount of comfort I find, For one cannot have everything But has for now, the deed has been done I can only wish for a better next time, What an eventful life..............

Beautiful, but not suitable for people suffering from DEPRESSION presently as this poem will motivate them to grab a bottle of their favorite juice (SNIPER) and ease their way to the great beyond. 1 Like |
