Time to flow in a different realm
Where life troubles are not interfered
All the joy he once had has disappeared into thin air
In a land where lives aren’t spared
Friends wonder why his joy has washed away
Maybe cause life isn’t fair
The boy no longer gave a care
As his heart bled away slowly his mother once said
“His heart leaving trying to camouflage with a guilty smile”
But she knew every cloud had a silver lining
She wanted to believe him
But it was a trick to find him
When people around him saw him slowly dying
Momma crying…Prophets trying
They predicted an evil spirit was within his gem
His heart must flourish so the souls can die within his stem
His mom told his boy to close his eyes tight
So that the prophet could help with all his might
When the ritual finished the boy seemed better
Color soon rushed back to his body
Was life so obscene that death is not serene?
Or was an author from above trying to write the closing scene
The boy embraced and hugged his mom…his mother asked
“How did you survive he said you almost left here? ”
She loved him no longer shedding a single tear
The boy answered with unquestionable greatness awoke was a leader
“Either I’m the strongest one left or I should be punished for trying to steal breath”
