Thorn In My Flesh Poem by Hon Kirui Wilbon

Thorn In My Flesh

Rating: 5.0


I keep Wondering how I got to this,
If I could be given a chance to go back,
To the Past
I would never Allow even a single space
For this thorn that has refused to get off
My paining flesh.
I am full of regrets and wishes that can
Never be Hourses even if I shed endless
Tears daily
Listen to Me You Thorn in my flesh......
I am hurting, you have made me suffer
Too much.
Before you came to my flesh, I had plans
Visions, dreams that have since faded
Away unfortunately
The desire to  Further my education.....
The Desire to uplift my living standard...
Now crippled.
You have turned my eyes to sources....
Springs of Two salty rivers that will Never Meet anywhere
Yet you seem not to care about it..
I have vainly tried my best to make you
Feel comfortable.
But You are fatally ungrateful to this far..
No matter how much I toil and moil
You still hurt
I always long that there comes a time
That you won't be in My tired flesh,
Anymore.
I know God is watching and one day
I will get rid of you ruthless thorn
In my flesh
Your ungrateful, mockery, demeaning
Intimidation, hostage and blackmail
Shall come an END.
