gamma by William P Struckethis shadowed light, falling footsteps on paper though enduring through my short time here leads to nothing but a martian night, I am, and finished upon these last mortal breaths laughter will die fleeing to escape -
my heart bursts with revenge against all unseen wounds, the dream that once passed now I chase into the night. dying shadows of silenced shock, this PAIN, remaining yet parched with thirst, the heavy wind in my ears and bitter cold of dark; winter is born and rocks freeze within, the fire long extinguished and dreams of you forgotten,
these dim shadows casting solitude on my lonely heart and closing these eyes one last time, I no longer see you or her, or them nothing but a lost innocence remains, and shards of an undying regret. 11/24/2003 Posted on 11/25/2003 Copyright © 2024 William P Strucke
