havent written in a while so not really sure about this one...


it takes just a moment,
to escape to how he used to be.
Just the tick of a second
to be jerked back to reality.

His charming smile itself
holds power to seduce your own,
but the cheerful curve of lips apair
dare hide secrets never shown.

His eyes-the highway to his soul
nursing deep compassion and eternal love,
but his soul can hear the calling
the tempting call from above.

His a man of warm charisma
of jokes and laugh and charm,
but the toxic fields of yesterday
have forced him to disarm.

His character and empathy
disintegrate more each day,
Just the shell of a broken man
takes place where he once lay.
