Confusion Thought
By Richard Maxfield
12-1-99


Rain softly beats on the roof
Lonely wind howls
Darkness of night
My heart growls

Setting alone in a darkened room
Quietness all around
Lost in thought
Hopeless abound

Memories so sweet
So sad
Happy sorrow
Most good some bad

Life’s fire dampened 
To a single amber glow
What to do next
Which way to go

What will tomorrow bring
Happy or sad
Live out  a dream
Anguish or glad

Rain soaks the thoughts 
Deep in my mind
Of another place
Another time

What went right
What went wrong
Life is short
Life is to long

Aching pain
So deep inside
No where to run 
No where to hide 

Spending my life 
In an empty hell
Once there was love
Now there is silence
