Dampened

the glimmer is lost from skies and eyes this dampened ground can’t hold anymore tears than my pillow can i am lost somewhere in the fogginess of another somber rise grounded hope dissipating in uncertainty as I stand alone in this rain watching streams flow down lonely streets where shadows once fell cracks hidden within like society these days (Bus scribble)

Another somber rise...hurry up spring, we need you now. Lonely and sad under misting skies. This one brings a tear to my eye.
