Deceased Heart

looking beyond discovery within one universe the dark side faceless without moon illusion shadows taking you there were a fire burns heart burning dreams nightmares of reality a maze of colours begin fading imprisoned eerily invading black cells opening hell's gate eating the light meaningless hurt inflicted upon ache the animal inside begins to roar deep churning emotions mixing feelings in a cauldron slowly dying inside to enter the land of walking dead love eats into pain demonic torture cold face of truth light within reason slowly coming out of the dark clouds shedding tears a crow caws entering grey area one bell strikes tolling slowly echoed in the deep cave a heart died out of love here lies one broken heart buried

Perfectly imaged. Great lines throughout and the last stanza so deeply moving.
