A Lone Beggar

In mere desolation marked on its blotted page intact

With morsels sprinkled among the rocks with salt
Although its scenic view came into play
The slightest hint of ambiguity & your through
Through emmense inner pain in the climax of its game

We played second fiddle on the one last string in pain

With words spoken in lavender best,
With music in the eighties in a crazy rage
Although its scenic view came in focus
Just suppose we end it all,

A suicidal maniac with quivers in his head

Shattered dreams in plotted schemes in lazy diamonds studded scenes
Shadows in the shining storm
If there is a rose its as good as born
A challenge to be free is a question in time

In anger we get grafted in by his great design

A lone beggar then wanders aimlessly in the street
In sudden madness he then longs to assist
The love we once knew would be long to resist
Shattered dreams through the torment in my mind

For I once could see yet now I'm blind
Shake dreams from your hair my pretty child
Chose the day in faltering heat
With bloodshed often in our street

Send the troops home,
There can be no good reason for them to roam
Boldness through its ivy briars torn in fetters
Shattered by the twilight in the storms of life

A broad aim toward the curry & ives
A lost child in torment yet hunts
The pilgrims sod beneath its felt
A quick glimpse of want to present some more
