Aftermath

Aftermath

After the event rises the fall on this rollercoaster

Scratches sting as the needle of reality is remembered

The blood which has no feelings or emotions rests red

Long silent moment with tears long gone is bed

Why can life punch this way as melancholy holds sway?

Universe of loneliness dictated by the vastness of space

Reflections of ourselves running to nowhere like rodents

This, nihilist embrace easy and hated as the black cloud dents

Suffering makes the spectacles a veil of tears

Grasping, clutching tentacles, to no avail shouting pleas

Only emptiness to listen, I am invisible to you

My savior my mind, only reality and reason can do

Why is strength so difficult when surrender is so frightening?

I am the coward too afraid to reach out with emotion

This dark lot that was made, with me the object

I see no reason why this poison was injected
