Burned

Pain found in the far reaches of a darkened mind melts all evidence of joy in the heart;
Shadows waste within the corners of life and bring clouded visions of all dreams and divine.
The here and now, as one should live, becomes a prison locked for only some to see;
Chaining the spirit, of a once proud soul, now broken in pieces without life anymore.

The choices from those, once promised to care, has the power to take your treasures unaware;
Continuing along in the world without thought and the feeling of “free” without even a dare.
To plan an exit without even a thought on how it would land on the unlucky distraught;
Leaving behind so many questions unanswered that it can only be seen as a deliberate action.

The flames in life are so quickly doused out yet for no other reason than the other self doubt;
Sending chocking sensations that burn to the core left to cool to a lifeless “forever more”.
The shreds of a lifeless clinging form who cannot move from its walls of chloroform;
Ensuring emotional paralysis, as a part of existence, fills our life with much unwanted resistance.

Hidden deep in the mind from way far below, a small voice is heard shouting a strange hello.
A semblance or thread of the once lively glow is trying to say that is must be made to grow.
Can you hear, are you listening, to the harried frantic non-opposing woe?
Or has the fire for life extinguished and cold, please please say we will not continue to fold.
