Zombie

A poem I wrote sometime back. A few friends have commented my poems all very cheem...haha. Anyway I shall try to write something happier next time! :)

A zombie stuck in time
Going through the daily motions of life
Their mind is dark, empty and bleak
Shrouded in darkness, locked in key

What's a smile but a farce
Its just an upward turning of the mouth
What's a scream when no one hears
Its just a soundless cry within
What's words when devoid of meaning
It chokes and burns so badly

What's a zombie but a clockwork doll
Wound up badly, nowhere to run
Still stuck in the realms of time.
