ghost



1. A frightening nightmare to remember,
    A sad feeling like a man's countdown,
     A terrified description escaping my ecstasy,
      A shameful event to encounter.
2.    Faded,
        at last lost in thoughts,
         talking to the endless stars,
         re-incarnating the horrible creature,
         breaking the pieces of hope,
          an elegant advice from the elders.
3.        Ghost,
            an awful action to host,
            surrendering to the troulbemost,
            enough joking with the lost.
4.         In a matter of despair,
            I face reality,
            an unexpected truth to tell,
             a loyalty broken to them.
5.          ca me vaut la peine,
              d'encadrer tous mes pas,
               les efforts de la vie me faillit,
               la tristesse de voir un demon, un jeu,
               jouer sur les coeurs aux portes des defis,
               autant qu'embrasser la mort.
6.            Sometimes,
                time times us,
                being faithful just in time,
                 but time doesn't want to go on,
                  an elliptical feature of nature.
7.                Life,
                   a ghost got me running,
                   in an endgame where hustlers struggle,
                   two strangers meet; nature and death.
8.                Escaping  at a large edge,
                    bringing fate to the cage,    
                    experiencing the efficiency of the lane,
                     intimidating the power of fame.
9.                  Too far to get close,
                      enough to prove the race of problems,
                       harder t start a conversation,
                       a conversation eager to hear.
10.                   Adam and Eve,
                        Romeo and Juliet,
                         Jack and Rose,
                         feel the pain,
                         crying on the stake,
                         of the ghost's rage.
11.                       Nature poses,
                          " Thy presume  my reliability,
                             reality faces death,
                             the only reason to hate life."
12.                         A wheel of time passes by,
                              nurturing a lesson in my mind,
                               to hunt down, hunt down,
                               until game over.
13.                           Talks became wars,
                                wars being endless,
                                until the hero strikes,
                                till the game of death.
14.                            I sit and meditate,
                                 feeling the beauty of love,
                                 learning a lesson, but having fear
15.                             As from  the wise,
                                  I face hope,
                                  the edge of wisdom,
                                  covering the intelligence of the unknown, that one day I shall be the last standing.


                              
                             
      



                 

About this poem

I wrote this poem because I was worried. I felt he essence of fear at that time. But I also learnt to intimidate the fear.
