World So Cold

by Unrequited   May 7, 2008


**I personally believe this piece works best if you read quickly**

bright eyes born lies taken wrists slit myths with glass shards torn inside
a child's yard sandbox sad thoughts tearing up a smile lost silent wind does not give in to storms that drive to cut this life end to end as shadows bend in screaming lights from graveyard skies where eyes of night are left to die a love left dry by mischief fires freeing sparks to watch them fly-
these new-blue eyes born from a lie will cloud the storm around us all and send to us a dream worth dreaming faith believing hearts retrieving all dark scars glittering in stars shooting 'cross a blackened blue that covers truth from naive youth that holds as proof that generations never learn to live with broken smiles-
love will crawl for miles while sorrow bleeds itself and drains the dial we'll save what God can't save ever punished by crashing waves brave enough to crave our skin and tear our bones lightning rips through those alone who groan and sigh of worthless lives breaking down and slowly dying beneath graveyard skies that whisper a song that sings goodnight to those that wish to dream once more-
judgment arrives in crashing sounds formally found outside of circles squared and never round but now it's time to close our eyes born in lies taken by wrists slit in godless myths with glass shards torn inside all we'e ever dreamed as lonesome children living in a world so cold.

    I agree, it has a good quick flow but i think it will be better if you break it up maybe and make it long and choppy? that would work best for me reading it, just my opinion but it would work really well it hink.

    great powerful write keep it up xx
