Black Mystic Clouds Poem by Cebo Soul

Black Mystic Clouds

Rating: 4.5


Black mystic clouds forever engulfing my life.
no one knows what I feel deep down inside.

unlike a cyclone,
I'm taciturn and calm on the outside.
yet within I'm a thundering storm, blistering cold.
Conflicted and confused..deluded and betrayed
Myfuture ain't bright, somebody please hand me a torch.

I don't even know who am I.
For real, who am I?
been faking smiles, Changing masks.
Cropping, resizing my mind.
tryna fit in their box...
can't find my original shape.

Soul searching, I only hear demons talkin...
Satan approaching,
my goals abandoned.
Dreams shattered.

I am a puppet, strings attached. I live not my life, but of others.
I am shadow.
A living ghost, no one hears my lament.
Even god turns a deaf ear, when I pray.
I'm dead by design.
Black mystic clouds engulfing my life.
lost inside my own mind.
Snake in the eagle shadow,
My death is inevitable.

Brave utterances set aside for honest reflection. An insightful depiction of life at its deplorable lowest ebb, well articulated and nicely penned with conviction. Thanks for sharing Cebo.
