Your Shattered Hopes
a familiar scene
plays itself out
in a familiar space.
darkness envelopes
sound and solids
into one being.
no one present
to give comfort.
no reassuring voice
to turn to.
Darkness,
only this.
____________
Sometimes there is nothing but silence.
_____________________________
I can hear your voice singing through the darkness.
I run towards your sound
crying out your name.
No matter how close I come
you are nowhere to be found.
Walk away
I wish I could
Walk away.
Tormented by this darkness
where can I run,
where can I run?
______________________________
The city bleeds from its asphalt arteries.
Torrents of red lit platelets
on four wheels
crawl closer to the towering
cluster of the heart.
_____________________
your crazy smile
draws me in.
the fire raging behind
opal eyes
blinds the reason
I retain
but you begin to strip away.
