“I love you”. You said and then you slipped away. Broken dreams, meaningless futile efforts at happiness? Mingled with useless feelings, promises of safe havens cast aside Unmatched emptiness, soulless societies tearing apart concrete foundations Searching with fevered panic, unhealthy unions superseded by drunkenness Vacant eyes, struggled smiles stare back with futile efforts of understanding Unreachable depths of ********** broken only by moments of saneness Interruptions of innocent faces, blankly staring in wonderment at nothingness Empty sentiment screams from hollowed eyes, foul breath from yellowed rotted smiles Halo dirtied by unwashed hands, melodies of undying love, waking emotions. Saneness interrupts Passions momentarily subside, shameful memories, guilt ridden questions of why. Seek forgiveness, absolution, resurrection of self worth. Intimidated inner child crying, wanting wholeness Inebriated ears cannot hear the mournful cry. Sightless to the destruction of beautiful dreams Cynical hearts cannot feel the bottomless abyss, created by selfish needs Beautiful white light eclipsed by black desires, reality escapes Averted eyes, wanton lies, excuses spring forth from rancid lips of deception Healing words cast aside, ***** by visions of drunken ****** A warped sense of empowerment dissuades sanity. Trapped in the tentacles of forbidden lust. Saneness interrupts Written By Edward Gordon Green.
