Unspeakable

I've come upon horrible,
unbearable things,
My soul silent, speechless,
unable to sing,
My heart which once pounded,
so loud with her near,
Now only beats softly,
barely able to hear,
My ears were joyous
at the sound of one voice,
Now closed, shut off,
to all of the noise,
Eyes that marveled
at the sight of a girl,
Now can't stand the visions
of a cruel, twisted world,
All of my senses,
once so acute,
Gone stagnant,inoperable,
broken and mute.

Isn't it strange how one day we look at the world and see nothing but light and beauty, and when heartbreak occurs, the world takes on such a sinister and dark hue? You expressed this perfectly, Madtat!!
