XYZA

My head is a bowl of whirling thoughts My mind,a rugged sea of jagged waves and shattered dreams A caricature of a fulfilled life Cartoonish belief in hope The earth is my oyster and my grave The paradox of a tortured soul Spat on as I stagger,drunk of the blood of my repeated failures Cursed to wander the earth in blood and ashes Torn out of my chest My bloody,thumping heart
