Every step of my life
Is filled with nothing but strife
My anger stains every moment
I spend in this world, and I make your life grotesque
My hopes and dreams are shattered,
As I make my way up to hell
Without you I feel like an empty shell
My heart is like a broken window
The cold breeze that’s let in, send shivers down my spine, it feels like we were together too long ago
Uncertain of what awaits for me in hell, up I go
Every now and then, staring down below
Drowning in memories of you
Wondering if you’re feeling the same too
Author notes
kinda how i'm feeling now...

A very different take on this picture. Life is full of strife and pain. I know I have had this days. This is very sad and powerful
Thank you for entering!

I like!
I have felt this on many an occasion. wondered what has happened to that one I lost, now it seems so long ago. I relate to this very well. Also very vivid. I love all the imagery in it. The whole "The cold breeze that’s let in, send shivers down my spine, it feels like we were together too long ago" I absolutely adore this line.
