Lonely Dreams Poem by Chime Justice Ndubuisi

I'm alone in the world,
Dreaming nasty dreams,
Ruminating on things I've been told
But they won't hold; it seems
They are all washed down the stream.
Once again I'm alone
And tears roll down like a stream
But then everything too is gone!

The stream rolls back to the river bed,
The moon appears dead in the sky,
And I'm alone in the world
As heaven open its mouth and cry,
I could feel the earthquake underneath
And there emerge creepy things
Enough to make me lose my breath.

And I'm already afraid of many things:

I'm afraid of the mountains
Spilling down molten magma,
Afraid of the ocean whose sobs
Put the whole land in coma,
Afraid of heaven breaking away from its pillars
And collapsing on the earth,
And stars missing from their constellations.
I'm afraid the sun won't shine forth,
That I'm really alone in the world
Dreaming these things
Which are making my blood turn cold
And compounding my woes for no reasons.
