Odes and Expressions · by Scholar Elesa Anah

Here I stand at the edge of a cliff

Staring down in to a deep black abyss

Decades flash before my wide open eyes

The end is upon me what's left of me cries

How could a soul who was once so intact

Be standing on edge without looking back

Knowing your future is the ultimate curse

Especially when you know it only gets worse

My voice is dwindling and it weakens each day

As the monster inside sucks my life force away

The devil I placed in the core of myself

In a desperate attempt at power and wealth

I must have been crazy to hatch such a plot

Life is more precious than the riches I sought

But here on the edge of blackness I stand

With nothing but fear and a pen in my hand

I should have chosen to live a scholarly life

Bought a house and had kids with a beautiful wife

Instead I chose war with a side dish of sorrow

On a bed of realization that I might not see tomorrow

In lieu of this truth I have chosen to write

A warning to all whether dark neutral or light

If you find that the end is drawing quite near

Embolden yourself and strap reigns to your fear

Ride like the wind until you have no regrets

Make a mark on the world that no one forgets
