Sinister Past Poem by Ricky Lewis

I couldn't come up with a title so I just made something stupid up until I could think of something better suited.


Looking back now, fading black cloud
Burning amidst the catastrophe eternal
The exploding revelation is so loud
The inner beast inside nocturnal
Surging through your veins, ruptured thoughts
Spill to the ground, sins are revived
Without questioning, the body rots
The rage to face is a fate self contrived

What I speak, the world becoming bleak
A gaunt reflection of our sinister past
The lightless dawn, the setting sun forever
Titling towards the darkness at last
The graves we fill, once again breathe
Our last prayers are thrown away
As we all give up what we believe

Looking back, this day is black
Turn to face the endless attack
Truth be fulfilled, prophecy controlled
Coalescing agony and unforgiving cold

Your fate, destroyed, a new order employed
Put it forth into a dream of the future
Doing the best we can to suture
Our last pure and simple seconds
Diluted with the blood and tears
As the light at the end faintly beckons
Throwing the sand of life into the gears

Looking back, this day is black
Turn to face the endless attack
Extenuate the sin, desecrate within
Scarring the thoughts I realize
Revolt against the demon, behead the beast
Stand up and divulge the lies

God, please tell me what you’re saying
I’m sick and tired of! @#$%^& praying
You’re nothing but unseen misery
Getting rid of you, is liberating me

Looking back, this day is black
Turn to face the endless attack
Truth be fulfilled, prophecy controlled
Coalescing evil and unforgiving cold
