Lifeless as I close the curtains of aging destiny, longing for life to take it’s toll, my tacit plea, indecisive in my beliefs of ages that lay ahead, utter pandemonium crushes my soul, left for dead, the road is shattered with precarious entities, I lie, self-initiatives guide my hands and heart, I cry, left behind in the chaos that I brought to the light of day, just another day in darkness, conceived pain, pushed away, magnificence, another name for beauty, for you, love is an unattainable task, emotions broken through, my heart is abandoned, broken, and shattered from pain, place your hand into mine, let me feel the golden rain, a wisp of life I feel inside whenever you are around me, wishing daily that you were mine, but how can that be, when my affection was hidden behind my mask of evasion, my eyes are lowered as is my spirit, darkness speaks the persuasion, if ever I needed someone close just like I do right now, then time would stop, and you would know the truth, but how, to hold you close, my last request, to show you that I care, but never will you learn of this, for the world is so unfair…Birth sign: Aries
