Left Behind

Bitter and broken Shattered and torn Resentful and angry Weary and worn Silently screaming Controlled by fears Falling apart Scarred by tears Wrecklessly wandering Dreaming aloud Sinfully hoping Shamefully proud Eternal damnation Tied to the rage Peace, so elusive Burning with hate Craving salvation Just out of reach Chained and on trial Lonely and weak Regret and despair Flows, deep, through my veins No turning back Too late to change Beckoned by lies Into the abyss Called by the darkness Poisoned by it's kiss Lost and alone Abandoned by all I try to rise up Only to stumble and fall Aching for acceptance None, could I find Burdened with sorrow Alone and left behind
