Death bed



It's called the death bed,
That lies within my chest

With a perfect graveyard,
That carries buried hopes

The hopes that were once desired,
Those hopes ever bloomed in my breast

Somehow it spoiled the child,
Some how it turned me wild

But ever as wise,
But ever so empathised

Those dreams were never loved less,
But i never did confess

May be thau and i knew it,
Those were never meant to be unless

Ruin you once but,
You'll hate to get'em again

Unforgetable desires,
When i was young

How unfortunate one can ever be,
If what he wants can never be done

It seems everything has come to an end,
It seemed  no one was ever as a friend

Sleepwalking through life,
All you do is 'pretend'

I'm now a reticient,
I'm now a evanescent

Surrounded by mobs,
Surrounded by judgements

I'm now an introvert 
I'm now a reclusive

Though I'm not fake,
I'm way too offensive

About this poem

It's about the dreams and hopes one ows and when they're broken how they get over em. The new changed person they become.
