Nothing Can Happen

I stare into the dark abyss Midnight ice; a wicked hiss Wading through the solemn storm Deepest depression takes its form Shattered promises and lost dreams Happiness torn apart at its seams Phantoms dance gleefully in the hail They knew that your life would derail Was it not they who hid in your mind? Whispering their assurances, all will be fine Perhaps today this wasn't the case Hot salty tears trail down your face An answer to the winter wind Leaving fear with those who've sinned Enveloped finally by sweet surrender Inside fades a dull ember Giving in, succumbing to midnight entrapment Heaviness descends, of course... nothing can happen
