Fake Lamentation

Fake Lamentation
by ~H~

Quash my hopes and quell my dreams
Wrap my heart in shades of grey
Life has it in for me, it seems
For jaded and broken I'm bound to stay

Sheath your tongue of silvery cold
I cover my ears from your fake lament
Speak no more your words so old
Release your grip on my mind now bent

Quash my hopes and quell my dreams
You leave this place in disarray
For me to patch the holes and seams
And amble on through another day

-End-
