“MY LOVE IS LOST”

I have been crushed, I watched my future disappear,

I am nothing, no warm place left for me,

All things missing, it’s just me and fear.

Black empty stillness, the only thing I see,

My love is lost, my heart no longer thirsts

Once warm blood, now just a frozen icicle,

I was rendered moot, when my heart burst,

Now I lay still as I rot, waiting for my recycle,

My sun is gone forever, only darkness now,

My name a faint shadow lost in distant memories,

Long I have laid, but still in pain somehow,

Feeling my bitter loss, my eternal destiny.

“Brightness of my light”

It took so few moments, to lose the “Brightness of my light”

Yes, took so few moments, to lose the “Brightness of my light”

Now I’m sentenced eternally, to the coldness of my lonely nights, my lonely nights

I am alone, and Im lonely, set adrift, in a sea of despair,

I am alone, and Im lonely, set adrift, in a sea of despair

Voids of emptiness, are surrounding me everywhere, surround me everywhere.

It took so few moments, to lose the “Brightness of my light”

Now I’m sentenced eternally, to the coldness of my lonely nights, my lonely nights

How and what just happened, I’m bewildered, I know not what to say,

I do now know that this pain is forever destined to stay, destined to stay

It took so very few moments, to lose the “Brightness of my light”

It took so very few moments to lose the “Brightness of my light”

Now I’m sentenced eternally, to the coldness of my lonely nights, My lonely nights

So forward I will march daily, each bitter step taken one by one,

Yes forward I will march daily, each bitter step taken, one by one,

Regrets my constant companion, till all my days are done. All my days are done

My Winter Darkness

Winter darkness has now fallen, I have lost my treasured vice.

That little place where I sat quietly,
is now suffocated in ice.

Gone for now, my happy place,
I spent alone with just my thoughts

Reliving past days memories,
and what those moments taught

Many days are yet to pass,
as I yearn for my favorite chair

Cozily peering thru frosted glass, longing thoughts locked in my stare

When will the sun return to warm that frozen air

Melting those iced shackles, and giving me back my favorite chair

“BEYOND THE EDGES OF THE LIGHT”

Beyond the edges of the light,
live the prisoners of the night

Sleeping unknown creatures,
only stirring with the waning light,

Subtle sounds heard moving,
feeding imaginations now unnerved

Creatures with eyes light useless,
only darkness do they serve.

Awake and hunger driven,
eating others that grow tails,

Yes monsters do run rampant,
in that realm where all light fails

“A SINGLE LIT MATCH”

When chaos reigns in our hearts, It dulls even the sharpest of minds,
shredding our confidence apart, like great levees eroded over time.
Failure feels predictable and certain
Catastrophic collapse is on its way
Swearing this your final curtain
And you have reached the end of your days.
Yet outcomes are never preordained,
Something can always change the tide,
Living hearts are never completely drained
So don’t pack it in before the end of your ride.
It takes the faith of just one single thought
And the effort of just one single scratch,
Because even the deepest and darkest of caves are brightened by a single lit match.
