LIQUID MISERY

LIQUID MISERY

by TRIXSTER

A silent rain falls

from a cloudless sky

engendering a sea of despair,

Which quenches the

flame of eternal hope

A whispering wind of

a hollow soul

reflects empty promises.

Sacred peace and crumbling faith

are nothing but shattered dreams.

Irony's blade sends

a forsaken life,

into Reality's garden

of savage fear and

total despair.

Flickering stars shine

upon tainted blood.

Blunt truth dares

a vain sacrifice.

A haunting lament

of uncanny horror

guides crimson doom

to spoil sweet freedom.

A merciless vengeance

sings a sour melody

of condemning humor.

Naive idealism defiled

in failure's cold shadow.

And everflowing tears

render the horizon of time.
