I fear myself

Anxiety dropped me in a hole

Pain captured me and made me whole

Jealousy became my four walls

But, malevolence is what actually made me fall

Then, tears drowned my generosity

While sadness Came and asked for me

 

Fear  feared my heart and locked himself in it’s place

Then, maliciousness stealthily came and swallowed the key

Wickedness chose to annihilate contentment from my race

Joy heard and fled from my sensation’s vocabulary

 

Through my eyes you could see,

Inhumanness transformed into my wealth

Then to sadness it commanded me to wed

With all of my contentment it was  fed

until  sorrow rose from the dead

And from my eyes happiness could no longer be read
