My Birthday Secret
Arivving late at my birthday party
My movement’s felt so strained and cautious
The Invitation’s were mailed and all sent out
Reserved were the guests, but I was not invited
So I gently whispered and screamed inside
terrified of my secret’s early discovery
I love Playing hide and seek year round
While desperately needing to be found
I dreamed of death
Once upon a borrowed time
a dead soul got lost while lingering here
afraid to be released among the afterlife
Eyes filled with lightning and betrayal
could the underworld be coming for him now
Petrified and unaware was he
until the lights came flickering on
I woke up to find it was just a dream
I sat up slowly and shook my head
To my surprise two coins fell from my eyes
I looked over and saw a letter addressed to me
asking me to pack my bag’s and return to sleep
I started to move and felt a hand reach out
grabbing my neck and pulling me tight
What a lively nightmare I had tonight
I hide my emotions from all
deep inside bottomless chasm’s
divulging to none my hopeless progression
Thankful for interruption’s of my continuity
