Fear laden eyes,
Ache of obscured dreams...
Heart racing
Hands shaking on the steering wheel...
The walls still hold the echoes
of a nine-year-old’s despair...
The endless ticking of my watch,
Every tick is like an hour passing...
O LORD God Almighty,
how shall a man serve You...
Your icy windowpane.
Ones that shatter...
I.listen to my great neice crying and screaming...
Two months old and inconsolable...
I fell into a spiral today.
No one even noticed me fall...
There’s a fire at the door
And there’s decay in the streets...
I swear I'm cursed
I say this every day...
Smile, Smile, Smile
Everyone is watching...
They called it redeployment,
as if a word could soften loss...
