Life Uncertain


Broken down and abundant

hope contaminates the air

choking the fulfillment of the undeserved

knocked out unconscious on the side of a curve

racing through the rain lies an unsteady heartbeat

 

At first light the world is asleep

contempt with the calming motions of the early morning

 

Throughout the evening fire breaks out a blaze so murderous

hope drowning and over taken by fear and dismay

the heart, once a soul chain now a black hole

looking into one's self and only see the future of their own demise
.
