Dim

I am simply damaged
A raven dejected
An old dream not needed
A spring breeze not felt
An old wound, unhealed
How can I tell you my backs against the wall?
How can I tell you how close the star is about to fall?
How can I tell you what happened than and now,
If there is nothing left to remind you of
Than why bother rustling those feathers at all?
How lost can I be, if no one was looking for me,
How true can I be, if no one hears the truth told from my lips?
How holy could I ever have been, if I simply could not sustain my innocence?
How frail is this pale ship riding towards the shore,
In this dead night

I’m reminded ever so harshly
Of the mindless score
Of fear over matter
And pain with no latter
To climb out of the hole left by time for me
What was it I searched for if you were the only one I wanted to see?
How the wicked little thing in me wants to scream
Let go of the ring around my soul
Holding you and I
Buried at the half mark of yesterday and today
I lost something important along the way
Someone I never knew
He was true
But he was never you
He was a light in the sky so blue
He was a whisper left lingering in the last room
He was a hope
I can no longer dance with
So now I’m left to the dimming mysteries
And no one is left in the old mind here
with the right thing to say.

Let me say,,Nice words...

Thank you, smiles
