Pitiless
A lonesome night soon fades away
Into indifferent rays of daylight
Towards a shallow, dusty pathway
Of fear and twisted delight
The crystalline emotions flutter
Within a heart of stony fleck
The noises make me shutter
As I tread this lonely, ACHING trek
You whispered something in my ear
I was thinking all the while
The words I simply couldn't hear
As I tried to switch on a smile
The night keeps leaving its deathly lustre
All around my tortured soul
The courage I try to muster
Is never enough...NOTHING...I am dull
I am useless, I am master-less
I am helpless...and with the mask of happiness -
PITILESS.
