Beneath cold skies of night
My heart beats
Grasping to survive
Trying to not drown
In tears
Quietly I slip into velvet
Blackness
Cold air
Caresses my thoughts
I’m suffocating
Loss of hope
Forgotten dreams
Faith disappears
In the morrow
I’m crushed
Again
My burdened heart
Barely beats
My burdened heart
Beats toward
Nothingness
Nothing becomes safer
Than something
Absent moments
Collide with fears
I’ve no strength
Cold skies of night
Dressed in velvet darkness
Have stolen
My hope
My grace
My faith

Deep feelings - I've been there. Reminds me of song lyrics from REM - losing my religion. Thanks for sharing your soulful expressions.
ReplyDeleteI'll look up REM's song, I am not familiar with it. Thank you for stopping by and for reading my heart felt words. This was written right after the loss of my brother
