The Letter...(Of Despair)
May 7, 2014
Blue skies clouded with the horrors of man,
Streets crowded with colors bright as sunflowers,
As I walk these familiar streets,
The wonders are not the same,
Why has this once beautiful world, once blue as the deepest ocean gone black?
Where have once visible, starry nights gone?
People converse like pigeons singing for bread,
Not really knowing why,
But talking endlessly,
Empty rooms, full of empty thoughts,
This world is a horrid, blinding, lonely place,
I know what loneliness is,
And it will kill you.
