End Of Misery Poem by Timothy Ogunsakin

End Of Misery

Rating: 5.0


I gazed, through the window
Seeing the East coast meadow
Out of the horizon came forth
A yellow heavy light
Like it's dreg a twilight palm wine
Set to feast the bridal dine

Warm but fiasco breezed
Swayed away my breath ceased
In a dilemma of destitute
Brought down my attitude
Though, it's hard seeing the ending
When you're just beginning

Mystery a secret of misery
End of misery opens secret of mystery

You say NO when it comes challenge
You say YES when it comes courage
Cos the history of yesterday
The victory of today
And the mystery of tomorrow
Stamped in the courage of your marrow

Like a lonely child in the desert
Who sees life as nought but a concert
iTunes his guitar for enthralling tones
A drop of tears he owns
Sounds the gravity of his victory
After decades of miserable history

Mystery a secret of misery
End of misery opens secret of mystery

Thanks for the poet's notes. Without them, this poem would have been much harder to understand. My favorite two lines are: Though, it's hard seeing the ending When you're just beginning Thanks for inviting me to read this. Now I invite you to read my latest: 'Bring another Blanket'.

An awesome poem with rhythmic beats. The last couplet sums up the theme beautifully.
