A Dark State of Mind
Forsaken progress at the end,
Too many broken hearts,
Left to never mend,
As a shadow of a thought,
Leaves shattered spirits trapped within,
And all hope is lost to the dark,
Where shall one begin?
See here in this melancholy state,
Ill shut out the sun,
And seal my own fate,
The shards of tattered shadow,
Whispering fiercely in the night,
A red moon shining through,
Glowing with crimson light....
All appears so clear,
In this state of mind,
Time seems to vanish,
With the past so far left behind,
Ill ask myself again,
Never knowing why,
How did I get here,
And how deserving of this am I?
