Dunamis Poem by Onuora ilodibe

Dunamis



Searched everywhere for happiness
Found nothing but emptiness
Loneliness even when with friends
The Buzz and puffs made it worse
The flirts and chats utterly bores
Laughter and cheers were superficial
Internally something was missing
Suggested I needed to see a shrink
But then nothing was wrong with me
So the therapist couldn't heal the void
And darkness my soul threatened to swallow
In the dirt and depth of misery my mind wallow
All I thought I knew and had, seems obsolete
All my wants and pursuits became desolate
But then I feigned acclaimed bohemian
Friends deserted and foes mocked in derision
Behold I was left alone to stew my juice
Withdrew the crowd that floods my house
Silence deafening contort with crippling fear
I had no where to go and nobody to call
Except a friend I knew when was a child
I lost contact but he has been there for me
To many times his calls I ignored
For this frenzied and binged crazy world
But now in desperation he is all I need
Everything is perfect with Christ in me.
