A Lust War Poem by David Nieketien

It's a few minutes pass four
And I'm lost in thoughts
I'm listening to a song by The Corr
Humming the lyrics; not noting what it taught
As I stare motionless at my door
For I'm worried about a war i once fought

They say a man has to be hard to core
No matter what, man up and stand tall
Be strong and look tough: he must be Thor
Hmm! And if it's possible, even be a brick wall
But if expectations at all be core
Then what's reality without pitfalls

I had written about this war before
Heartfelt rhymes, candid lines; i can recall
And although those line are hard to ignore
'Cos to mind i had the rhythm installed
But yet, i still betray the morals i had in store
And damned the consequences that befall

It seems I'm out of options to explore
I'm glad sleep is trying to chip in a little comfort
'Cos no matter the hours I spend to deplore
it seems we both still have a bit of rapport
I want to fall asleep again and snore
'Cos this lust i wish to ort

This lust has taken it's course like before
It's now six and I'm still playing the same song
Still no success and am now bored
I felt Lust's war was long won, I was wrong
And so, I must give in to sleep once more
'Cos it's no use being awake all day long to a lost war.

The End
