Enigmatic Black Soul Hole Home
Falling ever further into your black hole
Colouring your soul
Like the center of a pint of pitch
tarmack Guinness
What on earth happened to the old you
That each and everyone used to love
As this isn't the you we have all
come to know and love so dearly
over time
The one you have in fact now
become eerie and totally insular
What happened to the boy the sun
needed permission from to shine
That soaked up the moisture from the
rain like an all encompassing singing
and dancing sponge umbrella
The person that people traveled from far
and wide to be in the presence of your
glowing enigmatic smile
So they in turn could make it through
another dreary mundane day
Come to think of it now maybe that's why
You find yourself at this current moment
standing on the precipus such as this
Starring blankly into a gaping black hole
trying not to be sucked in
And why the light in your eyes has
seemingly been burned out beyond
recognition
Are you now searching for a new fresh
light of your own to own
To reignite and inspire your soul once
upon a time more so again
In order so it can both find and so
return you back
" HOME "
Rather than face another day of you
not knowing yourself or your reflection
either
No longer a true believer in such beautiful
pretty things exist
