My Soul’s Gone Missing- A Poem
September 10, 2018
Stranger
Help me
Everyone blames me
Trust me, I had to do it
My soul ain’t with me.
My soul’s gone missing.
Don’t be afraid.
It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me.
Why are you running away from me!?
Blood and entrails all around.
Tried to scream but was no sound.
It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me
Why are you blaming me?
Don’t take me in, it was him.
All I did was let him in.
Get away. Get away. Get away!
Nobody is listening.
I said I don’t want to play.
Mama, I’m sorry, he won’t get away.
It’s time for me to leave today.
