Soiled

I’m old but still new. Captured you outside a photo. Never so soft. Hardened by fear and anguish. You wanted to be left alone. So now i am. Can’t catch a break. This is what i have. So far fine. So far gone. Meet me later if you dare. I’m so lost. Find my way. Day so dark the clouds cry tears. Shattered here. Broken heart. Work alone can’t find my part. Empty threats left behind some imagery. You found a home. Left me none. Broke your promise. It’s like you’ve won. My time will come. For death or reckoning. Plucked my wings. Smashed my records. Not so nice. Eternal cave like bristling with mayhem and vanity. Rolled up sleeves. Lower morals. Fiendish flames flicker faint. No more stories. Nothing here. Empty ego. Broken springs.
