The Web Poetry Corner - Sekhem Psikor Strecker - One Eye Open

One Eye Open

by

Sekhem Psikor Strecker

One opened eye, soul trapped within
With past demise and tortured sin
And deep inside the iris blue
Show your goodbye as ice cracks through

Beneath the film of opaque skin
The blackened blood of hate begins
To seep into the pristine heart
Like an assassins poisoned dart

Growing hatred from clenching fists
And night time journeys of nightmare fits
Fill the empty void with something new
Who gives a damn if it's not true?

Like fakers who fake and liars' lies
They fail to hear the sufferers' cries
The blade digs deep into their flesh
And tears the life-forces' woven mesh

But with one eye open, soul trapped within
The past denied where truth begins
It becomes as fair to steal a breath
As to rebuke a single death
