Subzero Lazeretto

Like an unwanted infection that has crept in
The chaotic emotions, running in circles,
jumping, shooting through the broken hearted mind
Following the pooling showers of tears
unable to cry in more, this hurt beyond rejection
Isolated beyond the wall of resentment
It’s like dry ice smoldering, after the self-treatment
of a long drunken stupor fades
Colder than the winters naked concrete,
burning the mind, boiling over with self-loathing
Your only blanket is the should haves, could haves and ifs
But now even those songs are gone
Only vacant stairs in the mirror of malcontent remain
If one is a lonely place to be, try zero minus four times a loser
Friendless in the world and a enemy of yourself
NOTE- There is hope and a friend you may not know yet the Lord Jesus Christ.
