Chris Stennett Poems

Evil has taken a terrifying form
And began playing with life like it's a game
Wreaking havoc like never before
And came forth screaming my name
...

For too long I've been labeled as a coward
Let myself be tortured by malevolent clones
Took relentless beatings like there's no tomorrow
Suffocated in the dust of human bones
...

I have risen from the ashes of enslavement
And have now forged my very own path
Never to be trapped in anyone's shadow
Or to continuously suffer their wrath
...

Time and time again we are always warned
To be very careful who we befriend
For not everyone we meet can be easily trusted
Or will stay friends with you till the very end
...

Sometimes things don't go according to plan
Since problems in life keep hitting you in the face
Dragging you down like a barrel full of crabs
Mocking you and calling you a complete disgrace
...

Words cannot describe how happy I've become
Since I have finally moved from darkness to the light
Free from never-ending misery and sadness
With the eternal feeling of enjoyment and flight
...

Something inside of me has snapped
Something that finally broke free from its cage
Something dark, destructive, and terrifying
My violent uncontrollable rage
...

I opened my eyes in a darkened red void
To see an eerie spirit approaching me ahead
With its menacing smile, and sinister aura
Where I lay paralyzed, and surrounded by the dead
...

The downs of my past keep calling and calling
Despite having convinced myself that they're all behind me
Leaving nothing but burn scars in the back of my mind
That enrage me from the inside to an unstable degree
...

I was no more than a kitten when I got into boxing
I lacked the strength and effort to give more than I gave
Which caused me to hear scolding voices in my head
Saying I will be sent to a very early grave
...
