Tyler A Sullivan Jun 2017
Soured metal, rotted walls
Darkness hangs form hall to hall
Broken bonds burning ambitions
A feeling half until furition

Life a moment
A last choking breath
Happiness a second
Before eternal death

We exist only
In the time between
A hint of joy
Goes often unseen

Until again
The crest breaks
And life slips by
But leaves no wake

Such was the tale
Of the great eluder
A hidden knife
A dark intruder

carry my load
for my back is broken, sir
i fell down the stairs
i held my breathe,
bombarded by stares
of complacent onlookers
a bunch of spiritual hookers

this picture haunts me
help me, sir
it constrains my vision
put on your seatbelt
i predict another collison
hold your breathe
your nightmares are about to come to furition

i warned you
but on you went
like those blissful onlookers
now it's your duty
to warn the next herd of hookers

— The End —
