The crushing blow of the words
That you somehow feel you deserve
Resonating to the core of who you are
Bleeding out of the void
Where there once was a heart
You have to be alright
Even though you are not
Drained of all your light
Nothingness is all you’ve got
Game over without a restart
All those sharp words spoken
All those soft words unspoken
All those closed doors that were once open
All those plans, hopes, dreams that were woven
All those promises made are now broken
The pain seems everlasting
Suffocating…squeezing the life out
Retracing your steps down a dead end road
You feel weak and can’t speak
Your life has lost its spark
Ghosts of what we were
Haunt your mind, linger on
Taunt your life, like a broken song
You pick yourself up and try to be strong
And trudge on through the dark
