Fractured Soul
Eyes surrender to the amber of the morning light
Beguiled and stagnate is the mind from the somber of the night
And again begins the whispers of the voices from ago
And to its torment colorless ignites the thoughts that flow
Questions rise to surface though elusive as the wind does blow
Blood stained hands equate the sign of death as all is lost
It stands the hairs up on end as fear bears all the cost
Lying motionless for days and weeks and even months on end
Waiting in this silent pain in hopes to love again
Watching velvet clouds race by across the azure sky
Blank stare against the landscape and still no answer why
And in all that’s been accomplished and in all the failures cost
Full circle now the consequence is all that has been lost
Approaching near the apex of the mountain of life's climb
Bittersweet divided thoughts in a life that’s out of time
There is no chance to love again, no chance to be reborn
And no hope to gain the strength from that which has been worn
Stagnate is the heart that cries empty like the hollow
No chance to mend regrets and the transgressions that soon did follow
Kinfolk rejection looms especially from the seed
The fractured Soul begins to cry and the heart begins to bleed
No tears left to cry from eyes that cannot cry
For there's no one to embrace as now the heart does sigh
One journey down and one to go as darkness fades the light
And fear and sadness sets the tone as it’s time for final flight
So throughout all this imperfectness the fractured Soul cries out
No options left to make amends or to go a different route
And so the time has come to silent tortured mind
The heart no longer beating has been extinguished at its prime
For hope has since expired and the grave be cold and deep
For it is what it shall be from the life once sowed and now reaped.
