The Broken Man

by Vincent DONNAHUE III - Cancer

There stands the broken man,
In his world of illusions.
The lost spirit without demands
Leaves him rest in confusion.
He rised from the bottom
Up to the highest top,
But like the rest in this world,
His luck once had to stop.
The day of sorrow had to come.
Damn all of it,
The hope, deception and love.
The hurricane of life
Slowly blew him away,
To teh spy - memory,
Who made him a slave.
The broken man of broken will
Has lost it all, 
His expectations, his love, teh thrill,
Once, it had to fall.
On the top of the cliff,
Ready to jump,
I saw him stand
Repeating these words:
"Tomorrow is a new day"
(But not for the broken man).
