Taught hours of sleepless wickedness
bleak hours into days of depression
moments over a split-second in time
Help never comes who could
while I wait time to pass
into forget
Wrought sorrow bevels the heart
from loving never, no trust within
raped in body and thoughts
Hurt seems nothing, there is no word
immense enough to feel that moment
dragged in mud and feathered in tar
He was distinguished, but fake in a gang
his buddies also soothed their desire
taking what isn't given
Down pages pass into years and sorrow, grows
mental health grows distraught and com-placed
until a pill soothed the past to not
But yet just like yesterday, the haunt persist
bellows of prayer can't heal,
charred and branded by men, to forever hurt
