He maps out his explosive past
A rich colourful story
He flew among stars
Crashed in the dirt
Covering his eyes and blinding his sight
Sentiment covered by years of sediment
He can no longer see life
His vision and mind alike blurred and murky
He refuses to acknowledge
If he could recall the feeling
He'd know life is worth living
But I fear he's gone
Lost in the nights stars
Holding on tightly to all he's lost
He sits frozen to his chair
Unmoving and staring into another universe
The only thing he feels is
The bleak of nothing
Always present
Emanating cold fractals of sadness and despair
The weak feeling of better years blunted and dissipating as I write this
Poetry will preserve it
But he's lost in his past life
Irretrievably
Irreparably
Irreversibly
