#WritcoPoemPrompt

Are you lost?
I'm a joker, this path you tread on is...
Twisted/costly.
Fret all you want, I only need your smile
What is life without worry after all?

Crickets chirping, shadows creeping, heart thumping.
Black absorbs, no reflection.
You wish you were calm but you're not
Torch in one hand, walking on light feet- you're a thief at your own threshold.
A sigh escapes the blinds.

Better stay, tread on wisely,
End what you started. Don't be sheepish
I warned, you ignored.

This unhealthy serene should...
You haven't tried the switch fool!
And behold!
Illuminating light,
sets of teeth embodied in the lips,
hands claspe and this certain warmth envelopes...

Relax! It's your birthday.
Rejoice!
Your family are the real thieves...
You're the victim...
There's no life without worry.
Now run along and have the lionshare of smiles,
you're no coward afterall.
