Once lived a zombie kid,

craving for gloomy memories,

alive, but emotionless,

a body without a soul,

wherever he went,

absorbed the gloomy memories,

to feel overwhelmed.

He kept on moving,

from towns to villages,

from village to cities,

but still unsatisfied,

a happy face with soulless eyes,

wandering around,

to feel the emotions,

that came along tragic moments,

but want to experience none.

Have many people beside him,

who love him,

but he is scared,

because if he loves them back,

his soul would cry the tears of gloom.

Zombie kid was not born,

he was made,

back in time, when he was a joyful kid,

he used to live with a sinful witch,

she used to feed him with gloom,

nurtured him with terror,

and haunted him every moment,

it didn't take much time,

to turn him into a zombie kid.

The witch used to give him a severe dilemma to face,

which he will never face,

she used to say,

"what if...

....someone dies?"

and her evil smile appears out of blue,

making the kid turn blue,

the glinted window, evening orange sun,

she repeats her question,

"what if...?"

the little kid who had no one around,

had no choice,

but to fall in that dark ocean,

ocean of negative thoughts,

he carried the wounds ahead,

and some distorted memories.

This is how zombie kid was raised,

this is how zombie kid come to exist,

he used to exist,

still exist, 

and maybe, will continue to exist,

look around,

you may see him,

maybe writing his story,

or reciting his poems.

If he spend some happy time,

his soul would not let him live,

it looks like that witch still control his soul.

Even if happiness is coming his way,

he turns away,

except for one,

he thinks he didn't deserve the love,

coming his way,

except the sadness and hurt,

the more gloom he ate,

more his desire rises.

He is now used to sadness,

with wide-opened eyes,

wandering for sadness,

even if it prinkles his conscience,

he still craves for it.

The zombie kid is now all grown up,

but his soul is still a kid,

because he never overcame his trauma,

the trauma he never faced.
