Like a child I feel
cornered in the shadows past
Like a loner of some broken land
Viciously the ruler demands
My precious token of life
he smashes the bones
He reigns
He hardly stands, but he commands
He calls my name in a horrific tongue
He smothers me,
his voice is piercing my ear
Brutal voice of a controlling caterer,
his food is full of junk
Always and forever
In a corner, or in a thought
On a crucial judgment
His voice and presence still exists
His choices, my burden to live for
His absence to die for

An excellent penning… I especially like:
“Brutal voice of a controlling caterer,
his food is full of junk”
Stunning!

❤ Omg, thank you so much!! Yes, for me HE is something like that too!! Like a second person into my thoughts, that originates from the past, and HE is fully judgemental…

Intriguing piece! I enjoyed your “he” and feel many have another person in their thoughts that is like a watchdog. Perhaps, a combination of those in our past and/or the present. It’s good to connect with you and thank you for following Eugi’s Causerie I.
