Shatter

Tomorrow leads to yesturday,
the present spans forever,
teardrops glisten on the sand,
I waste away my eternities.

Smiles hide the screams inside,
shadows laugh at the pain,
I sit before my empty pit,
my black hole heart within.

Sigh into the darkness,
secrets on one else can hear,
make sure no fire ever lights,
to burn you to the core.

On thrones of ice
and roses thorn, listen,
echos speak, they say to me
nothings left to fight for.

On broken wings I tried to fly,
made it just high enough,
to fall like a stone through pools of bliss,
and shatter on the ground.
