Black Lightning Poem by Axley Jade Blaze

All the rainstorms created with our tears,
The vast and oceanic fears
The struggles and the fighting
You came into my life
Like Black Lightning

All the times we cried.
The endless fights, and fights,
And lies.
And, that tragic last goodbye.
Memories that cause me to wish to die
Because of you, my ominous Black Lightning

Every costly moment shared,
When we were young and didn't care
So free; we were so brave.
Yet, it was heroin we craved.
Still, it was my soul to you, I gave—
My forbidden cold Black Lightning

When I hear you call?
I see visions;
Watch you fall
As you soar through the sky
Yes, you are always flying high.
Like a flash of thick Black Lightning

It's loyalty you lack,
Now I can't accept you back!
Yet, it's your speech that I do hear.
In this solitude—I fear!
Thanks to you;
My poisonous Black Lightning

As I fall to my knees
And, shout, 'Oh my God, Please! '
My voice?
It starts to freeze.
I beg you, God,
Free me from this deranged Black Lightning

And, my body?
It starts to quiver
I convulse, as I shiver!
When I think about the silver sliver
That detained my poor Black Lightning.

Darkness; it invades me.
It surrounds and it enslaves me.
No, you could never save me—
I decay from you,
I do—
My unfortunate Black Lightning

Yet, drawn to the dark.
Without you?
I'm a question mark!
But, I can't do it—
I can no longer be a part
Of this gangrenous Black Lightning!
