Guards erected
walled emotions
never to find the
freedom to soar
against the azure
skies of hope
I am alone with
in the silence of
my own castle of
miserable taunting.
Ha, thought you
found the one as
the wind shrieks
it's callous calling
Drowning
swallowing all the
bitterness my cup
spilleth over and
begging for more
Can't take it
looking towards
tomorrow and not
being able to see
anything except the
black knight of
despair
I am nothing
I feel nothing
and everything all
tied into knots in
the gnarly stomach
of this broken heart
Take me
shake me
rake me over the coals
or just leave me to drown
hopeless
helpless
miserable
alone and
lonely
