I have always wanted to write a poem about breaking wind. And also I have always wondered, what the sound of loneliness? Rejection? Pain?
Like waves and a shoreline, it keeps on pushing through the night.
Like the morning sun in Mombasa, a heart bleeding from a Samurai sword
Like a game of words with no meaning, a 1000 years and a dark night in a hurricane
Like a feeble candle in the wind, a hoot by the window
Like breaking wind silently, a bleak future
Like the roars in Masai Mara, a Kenyan running a marathon...
Pain from rejection never stops:(
It babbles, thunders and whistles...
It purrs, grunts and hisses
It cloaks and storms
It tears from the inside, slams a door and opens an empty can of worms.

The sound of...
It howls like the restless wind in SaharaLike waves and a shoreline, it keeps on pushing through the night.
Like the morning sun in Mombasa, a heart bleeding from a Samurai sword
Like a game of words with no meaning, a 1000 years and a dark night in a hurricane
Like a feeble candle in the wind, a hoot by the window
Like breaking wind silently, a bleak future
Like the roars in Masai Mara, a Kenyan running a marathon...
Pain from rejection never stops:(
It babbles, thunders and whistles...
It purrs, grunts and hisses
It cloaks and storms
It tears from the inside, slams a door and opens an empty can of worms.
