Drifting
wandering thoughts and images that appear
of things once held dear
connections broken, lives lost
realization of motto: trust no one but self
rewinding film in my mind
slowly it plays
of dreams dissipated, of hopes and fears
childhood dreams faded in the blink of an eye
as waves of harsh reality cut like a knife
innocence lost, stolen, taken
eyes sharp, pierce like a pin
angered voices, harsh hands
fading dreams, hopes, aspirations
crash to the floor like broken glass
screams echo across the land
like the howl of a lone wolf in the distance
closed lids, sealed with tears
blankets wrapped as tight as knots
hello, are you there,
can you hear me, can't you see
sounds of my heartbeat echo within my ears
no answer, no hand to hold,
no one to comfort, no love embraces me
alone am I, whence comes my peace
whispered softly in the confines of my mind
does it really exist.. do I really exist
am I alive, or simply drifting by
long eye lashes flutter like wings of a butterly
yet again drowned in salty tears
as I dimly fade
colorful, charming world of beauty
only in my world of dreams..~written by me~
(this is the picture I'm thinking of using for my new look!)
