Cold Desperation

Cold Desperation 2.18.97 A man stands solemn, stinging waves realized. Thoughts become narrow, decisive darkness abounds Fears withdrawn, loneliness encounters the chose Winds embrace the fading light, spills unto forever. Cities lies devouring spirits time realizes death Waves without souls imagined, lost without destiny Moments remembering maiden’s sorrows unrealized Time endless day’s forgotten, needless joys released. Lonely avenues of forever tempted, deception is now Feeling tomorrows pain invokes thoughts past done Dreams forgiving intentions longing for night now Desperations kiss of time unfilled losing the past. Coldness shadowing images of deceit, decaying Darkness knowing loves unresponsive truth calling. © 1997 David J. Mitchell .
