Huiwen:D Maturity and Beyond
The finger crooks, arches, beckons
One fiery tempest
From loins deep within
The crave to savour the obscurity
Attention, a hunger pang.
A crackling, a scattering
Sparks ignite
It flickers, unsteady
Stumbling footsteps wafting
Tendrils of grey curling
The sentiments,
Remnants of the traces of youthful innocence.
Mother nature awakens,
Pregnant
Symptoms-a childhood rebellion
Agony emaciated
The birth of a child’s maturity
She opens her mouth,
First cries.
The rendering need of her presence known,
The fuel to the fireflies.
It silently diminishes,
Then bursting forth in full splendor
The simple complexity of eyes unveiled.
Crimson blossoms on white sheets darken
A simple recognition
A stunning revelation sets in.
Grappling, struggling, silence,
Sole rat race of social climb.
Acquaintances alight
Another soft butterfly touch
A whisper, gone
Reality, a losing game
Trickling, seeping, suffocating
Conscience muffled, reined
Features contorted into an anguish scream
A round silent O
Epitome of greed
It cackles, withers
The serpent of human’s nature
The bruise of mankind’s heel
Nay, but folly.
Venom drips from honeyed words
Plastered smiles,
Mannequins, abundant
Stiff-backed, composed severe
Humanity-a drawn void
If only it would means survival
A lost soul, a robbed identity
Faceless masks
Meaningless coagulation of senseless words
An overriding eclipse.
The peeking age of the sun
Realization hits
Wizened.
Your life clocks fades in,
Flickers,
At the end if the dark tunnel.
Ominous, oblivious
Its silent ticking haunts,
The ghost of her lost youth.
Ha!
Age laughs you in the face.
