What About Me? Poem by Owoeye Taiwo Bisola

What About Me?



WHAT ABOUT ME?

What about me and the hurts in my heart?
What about everything I've been through?
My soul screams in silence every season,
My eyes turns crimsome with weird warmth,
My nose is constantly overflowing like rivers,
When will mercy behold my face with pity?
What about me and my weakened world falling apart right in front of me?

What about me and the scars on my body?
Who do I hold accountable for these scars?
My scars are always shimmering with blood,
My mind is usually muddled up with mud,
My brain is consistently in pleasurable pain,
How do I put an end to these rivulets of bood?
How do I catch the sun on my face without blurry eyes and without being burnt?

A very well worded poem about very sad questions and painful mosochistic expressions. True therapeutical poem, straight from the heart. Thank you for sharing this important poem
