Metamorphosis

A somber day has begun again,

Asunder my effete conscience stands.

I blame the convoluted night,

For how alone I was kept;

Loneliness brought in fears of oblivion,

Lamented my heart, my soul swept.

This grey has never protested to save me.

All the blues are unjust distorted pretext.

I need some care to end this misery.

This 'flummox' has, so far, only served death.

O’ kindness laden with fruits of calm,

Take me to the paradise of levity in love’s realm;

I am a numb fugitive of sullen profanities,

I long to feel the balminess of joy and vanity.

 Let my day begin with jubilant prays,

And my mind blossom positivity in happy sun rays;

Let my thoughts prod along uncaged, unfenced,

Hence, my demise shall be lore for generations to no extent.
