In Night

A nightmare brought to the page,
deteriorated respect and lost love is all life has to give now,
with ripped hearts and torn souls to show for it

Rocks thrash and anger flies through the air at the loss of meaning,
of rest,
of softness

Resentment fills the buckets to the brim with nothing left to carry it in
We live on the brink of insanity now, holding onto things we thought were real but never were
Memories betray and so does blind love,
leading hearts through the darkness and lying to them,
pretending that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

but knives cut deep,
and reality gives wake up calls and stops the facade

Eyes open to the real world of hatred,
leaving a vast emptiness where the fake truth used to be,
a hole never filled except with more lies
and more harsh words that echo through it all.
A nightmare brought to life
