Abandoned and Forgotten
Abandoned and Forgotten
Days bleeding into nights
Shackled to the ticking of endless nights,
Silence screams, a chorus of lonely nights.
Shadows dance on walls, mocking and frights,
As seconds bleed into a lifetime of fearing of the future take.? Of what decisions shall I make? Loneliness etches itself into once-smooth skin, leaving lines of despair etched deep within.
Deserted halls echo with questions untold,
"Why?" "When? Where did it fold?
Years crawl by, chains of solitude
binding tighter still prolude,
Hope flickers faint, a dying ember's last fight,
Can dawn break through the gloom that chokes the air within its bloom?
Or am I destined to weather here in despair, buried in this affair in it's might?But there are no replies, only the ceaseless hum of empty lies, The mirror reflects a stranger's gaze, eyes hollow and haunted, a silent scream trapped within.
So let me seize that flame, fan it bright,
Banish the shadows that plague my sight.
I choose to rise above this prison of despair,
To seek the light, to breathe the healing air.
No longer bound by echoes of yesterday,
I'll forge ahead, come what may someday?
And though the path may wind and turn away,
My spirit stirs, ready to yearn another day, Everlasting this solitude of pain. the sun will rise again,
Guiding me towards a brighter horizon, a new begin.
Claws of solitude rip, unyielding,
Yet embers of defiance smolder willding.
Through suffocating shadows, a whisper persists within Familiar spaces twisted remonist by solitude's cruel whim.
"I will endure within?
Bonds of sorrow may constrict,
Though silken threads of memory restrict, entwine melodys of hearts shattered. Remembering what most mattered,
Shackled by time's relentless march,
Solitude's talons score and scarch.
Yet within this cell of shadow cast,
An ember sparks, defiantly vast.
Hoping this shall not be my last.
Tempest the rage of my past.
