Jan 2013
Beneath these broken wings, hidden behind an empty gaze,
A hungry heart and awakened mind, left to wander in this forsaken place, always searching-
Disillusioned and detached, stumbling about in an endless haze.

Waiting for a different time, for things to change, clinging to dreams of pristine life without pain.
Thoughts strewn about in ugly, anxious pieces,
Doubt taking root in broken foundations-
In another life, given another chance, the demons would be slain.

This fog of unanswered questions consumes all.
If only I could find a way out-
I could be free.
