Of brighter days, finding better ways,
Horrible misuse of truth abuse-

Ode to Poe

Topic: Sad Poetry

I once was human. Loving, humane.
Became insidious, a monster,
/Insane, for a lack of a worse name
With intentions of becoming tame

Long periods of short falls and fuses
Intervals where smiles bear excuses
Of brighter days, finding better ways,
Horrible misuse of truth abuse-
Sanity. My curse. What could be worse?
