LIES

i hear no melodies
and the song is faded from my heart

my hopes lie in tatters
strewn about muddy footprints

they said in time the torrent would recede
and prove me stronger

they've since gone and the waters drained
along with the better parts of me

frail fragile thin pale
weakness wandering fatigued

in a dimly lit
endless tunnel

the failures of my youth
stalk me in the screaming darkness

i hear only the solitude
