Childlike Godlike Poem by Ihsan Musthafa

Cornered into this forsakenness of my own design
Gazing at the lives of others that I just cant comprehend
Seeking answers from the depths of my own mind
I feel saturated with world's endless wicked interments

There was a time the child in me ruled like a king
His own kingdom; full of innocence and playful joy that were boundless
Then I started to hear the fat lady sing
I awoke from the dream of being forever selfless

Angel feathers brushed my cheeks and took away my tears
Where have all the glee laughter shuddering gone
Instead I stand cloaked in forsakenness and darkly fears
Something inside me says, it's time to be again reborn
