(Poem) “Sober Minds”
My Inspiration for writing this poem Titled: Sober Minds is to say treat your mind like gold, it’s the only thing you really own in this world.
Author: Urban Poems
When you got eyes to see, you can’t be drinking and popping ecstasy.
The serpent creeps, in the hearts of the ones that you trust when you sleep.
There was a boy, ten years old and wise as can be.
His first drink of milk came from his mother when she used to be a peach.
Ten years later, the look in her eyes is deceased.
Another soul eaten in the streets..
The soul snatcher whispered in her ears, and told her take away his peace,
So she offered him alcohol to destroy the lad while he was weak..
For a while, he became an alcoholic, and the soul snatcher grinning thought he had the boy for keeps.
Set up from the start, he saw no hope in reach.
So he tried a new thing and looked up to the sky,and asked the Most High, to clean a soul that reeks.
The serpent losing his grip offered him every drug, from A to Z.
Desperate to kill the man before anybody sees.
With the fire of the Most High lit within his eyes, there’s no way to stop the future prodigy.
This time, he will fulfill a righteous man’s prophesy.
