Faded Ink

Everything happens with just a blink of an eye
staring at a picture in the frame, lost in freezing of time
But im unexplainably able to reverse and rewind
My emptiness it hides, my tears flow like rivers in tides
With a jarred in my hand, pick up with intent to abuse it
Splattered glass around my feet, what I’m feeling, is useless
The faceless whisper knew the life I’ve been through
A faint voice in my head is telling me “find the strife within you”
Words from my pen say I’m close to finding lies in the truth
Hearing, “you’re already dead feeling the wind beneath you”
Moving through the obstacles as the inc soaks it through
My thoughts and pain follow the movement my soul’s been through
A curving sorrow tells a story looking out a broken window
Everything inside me shattered and this life’s to hard to live for
Feels like sitting on the porch as life’s swinging away
Just being able to get by, just living on this minimum wage
Turning scripture into a masterpiece wit imagery of words
Sadly, the picture paints a disturbance no one knows what its worth
All I feel is the tears of the sun, even when it steadily shines
I can’t hide my fears in the rain when its never heavenly divine
These words, there suddenly no longer in front of me
I can’t face my own reflection because the truth is too ugly
But everything has a beginning, fades and u cant escape
Incarcerated in time, my pen writes the message as the inc begins to fade...

I enjoyed this read very much. It has alot of strong passages that just jump out at you, however I do feel that you lose a sence of structure in your poem. It seems to change just slightly in rhyme and beat every so often and there doesn't seem to be a pattern to it. But that must be how it fell out of your pen. Good one.
