Quiet Desperation

Blue shadows
on grey stones
Everyone's running, with no place to go
There's screaming and crying
But no sound's coming out
Life's night unending
Salvation's hidden by clouds

Streetlight's golden
glow on the bench
As I sit here in ice water- now drenched
There's suffocating pain,
But worse- drowning pride
Life's night unending
With no grace in sight

Greasy napkin
From Mac's last week
Does nothing to aide the tracks on my cheek.
Look right through me,
My tears are my sheild.
Life's night unending
That time shall not heal

    WOW....one of my new favorites by you. It has so much imagery, I mean I could really just see this all in my head. Yeah it's sad but it's also amazing. This is such a great write. I'm completly taken back in amazement.
