Hope, Love, Fear, Despair

Why are you so glim? Is the world around so dark and grey? Are visions of life the scars left behind? Putty melded, folded, twisted and bent Articulately fermented bonded, ready to present. A fixed heart toward desires of uncertainty If only immaturity had some sort of EQ mentality. Reluctant as a cat to water Every single person has many faults to alter. Agile, friendly warm when cold Fragile, fierce a stranger to hold Stories to tell of time beyond old Purring away at passions of untold Quietly smooth with textures of fur So distant within time when time becomes a blur Was once such a loud fun friendly house Now just empty with games of cat and mouse.
