All That Is - A Poem by Mario Wade


Something whispers in my ear,
Obscene thoughts of grandeur clear.
Fear so deep its smell, sublimes.
Watching as it all unwinds.
I loathe your beauty, charm and grace,
Hoping that they dissipate.
It forms a thought, my disturbed mind.
All that is, is was; in time

 Far too long have I waited,
Grievous change anticipated.
Gawking listlessly as I,
Try my best to realize.
Ominous as it may seem,
It’s too real to be a dream.
 Now and then I’ve come to see,
All that is, and was; will be.
.
So serene, yet contoured,
Desperately drawn when allured.
Obvious to the naked eye,
“Now its time to say goodbye!”
Flaunt my last and hold my own,
For all my sins, I must atone.
I calculate and so I find,
All that is; was never mine.
