If The Future is Cold

Lights shimmer, neon twisted in shallow pools of rainwater
Darkness breeds demons, spectres feast on my despair
Chew through the spine, paralysis of the mind
Vision emtombed, banished the wandering king
My face the tired emblem of faded optimism
Dreams crushed to dust, wounds sore and bleeding
The wine of youth now poisoned with salt water
Air of mistrust no longer blown by the wind of change
Empty gestures bore deep, hollow the soul
Promises lies, masks of true intention
Words believed, deceive, the subtle stabbing blade
Twist once more, cut me to shreds
I am the ghost though only to myself
Strangled by the giving and never received
How can life blossom like a flower in springtime ?
Can a heart beat with warmth if the future is cold ?

This is a powerful write, I particulary enjoyed the last stanza, the questioning on the last two lines gives food for thought.
Excellent work Steve.

Life atm isnt going well, its giving you several routes to go. It will be your choice to choose which route you will go. This brings lots of emotions and stress.
No matter how bad or sad life gets, there is always light after darkness. ;-)
I'll always be here for you...
Hugggsssss,
