A Slight Return

Darkness is my life that apears in light. Has it come to just another fix. The smile does conceal my losing fight. The music the screams within. The lies eat away at the man I can no longer stand. Hollow is thy heart. Crimson stains all that is never held in hand. It started a game now it's a curse. In darkness I speak to you all I could never say. The man once known to you. Has all but faded away. And as I slip into adictions abyss. Candle lit memories were taken with the breeze. That killed that romantic glow. As the stranger who exists in the form once you did love. Twist's into a form you cannot understand. I ask out of love for you to forget. The monster that haunts this form. In memories true love we will forever know. The emptyness of of this life. And the once splendid candle lights glow. In truth we die. As we live. So must we cry. Not every every question has a answer my friends. Gonzo.

Addictions abyss, powerful words, every emotion released in those two words. To know someone fighting that life is to feel those words, you did a great job with this poem. Judy Riley
