Time gone by

Damaged apparitions of a time gone by

standing at a juncture with a sorrowful sigh

climbing emotions taken a back

traumatic overtures brought no slack

Dragging expressions show no remorse

collective energies blown off course

transient persistence against the grain

blowing embers of yesterday, snuffed out by rain

Limited by stagnant thoughts of a shadowy past

echoes of a tearful laugh that did not last

clouded impulsions of sanctimonious overload

I did not choose this path, yet I traveled the road.

Abrupt Reality

Defensive mindedness clouding my vision

limitless chaos uninvited

breaking down confidence and closing the gap

Confined by decisions that were not mine

situations paved my way within time

Fleeting minutes tick away.

Complex Faith

Some things seem clear

others are somewhat foggy

which leads me to question

to question the ver existence fo the mundane

Some things transition

yet everything stays the same

glimmering hopes of forevermore

break on through the rain

Even with the lights on

all I can see is black

my whole world seems simulated

How will I ever get back?

Throw me a rope, pull me out

swallowed up by the sea of desperity

so much pressure I cannot shout

protect me this I pray, you are my only hope

Brazened images of a past unfiltered

cloud my mind with sinful decisions

shadows becon but I will not follow

lead me on my lifelong pathway, forever to never stray

My forever should not be questioned

the dangers around me will not cease

You are my rock, my salvation

despair and darkness overcome by peace
