Steemotion Contest! - Songs of Sadness (AGONIES FOR BREAKFAST)
.jpg)
There is a casket of pain
Holding the thoughts of our happiness like a chain.
It's keeping our emotions jettisoned, like it's on a rail.
We are slaves to breakfast of agonies.
Everytime we wink a smile.
We see sadness falling from the skies
Like a pile of rain on the window pane
I can see your cries are lost in echoes.
Silently loud, slow like wall geckos.
You've seen the pangs of torment
But life keeps stabbing your hopes.
You've watched your children sinking in hunger.
But poverty is just your nephew.
Life has brought agonies for breakfast.
It's kept our mother deep down in the grave.
As we watched her embraced the claws of death.
Her smiles were like the sunset.
But in just a flash, it left her like the rainbows on a rainy day.
She was warm, tender and loving.
But there's are boiling tears in the reservoirs of my eyes.
It's stabbing my chest and draining taunting cries out of me.
We watched the sun die with our dreams.
Now we live with the prodding spears of loneliness.
Its like a mother watching her child taken away.
A lot of screams filled with a broken heart.
Struggling and battling to chain the penury.
Like a deep wound that reflected in the soul.
Life has served a breakfast filled with agonies.
