(867) Round Me Follow -Eyes Of Hollow Poem by Melvina Germain

Leave me alone, stop following me around,
I’m broken, wearing a chronic frown.

All eyes focused, just on me, my life un-whole
a travesty.

Calling me- voices loud and clear,
No-I must not go there.

Piercing eyes, deep and hollow, dead of night,
fearful sight, eyes come- from far and near.

Lost in the deepest, darkest cave, my life
depicts the way I behave.

Look at me, I can’t see you, for you are not real,
yet I feel the fire in my head, sometime I long
to be dead.

You filled every hole, lined every wall,
taken me through hell, a tortured fall.

Captured my body and soul, now I
long once again to be whole.

How much more can one take, let me go
through the tunnel of love and light so fair.

To that place of everlasting peace,
so I may soar through the air.

My life on earth was doomed since birth,
There, I’ll have a second chance to show my worth.
