Bittersweet Satire

My dreams existed because I wanted them to 

my laws determined but they were all that people wanted to sue.


I put on my lovely, fluffy attire

my humor is put to rest but still I let out a little joke of old age satire.


I want to be this person that I am looking at now before me 

the mirror appears to shadow my true self; 

this is not who I truly and genuinely want to be.


My mind has created a monster of no will 

life has come to approach me and it handed me my last and final bill.


Look at the bright side, everything is originally bitter sweet 

it isn't up to my circumstances, the conditions don't seem to agree or meet.


Don't have your eyes growl at mine in so of a form

your soul is locked in a cage and your body is caged in a dorm. 


Shower these wishes; destine those dares!

What am I even saying...

No one even cares.


I  cut my already wounded skin so sharp with a knife and it lets out its venom 

it is my rib cage that is doomed in, and my heart has becone trapped in a plenum. 


This is my verge to be

because what I reach for, I cannot always see.


I try to always let my blood drain thin

because I would want to remain my body clean and pure, not a haunting sin. 


I shall refuel my life with the people I love

because what I don't like, I'll definitely rid of.


Hey, and you know what?

this time, I'm gonna go ahead and follow my gut. 


This is the bittersweet symphony I sing,

If there is something of your dislike, please don't let it sting

for I have done this for years

like it's my go-to,

like it's my thing.
