Restless listless hopeless there,
Penniless with rags to wear,
The shadows covers his shame,
Faceless doesn’t need a name,
Because no one really cares,
Restless listless and in pain.
No rescue no friend will come,
Ending when this movement’s done,
Drops exhausted to the ground
At last completely worn down,
Hope was long since abandon
Acceptance comes without sound
Motionless just laying there
A Shadow shroud his to wear.

"The shadows covers his shame,

You've drawn the desperation and hopelessness of one's plight clearly, leaving me with many images Professor Gloom ... very well done!

Best wishes,

Are not desperation and hopelessness only dark shadows lying to us by hiding the truth of sunshine which offers faith and hope? Why, with a little rain and sunshine, could we not grow some new life?

Thank you, Charisma,
Glad you enjoyed.

Thank you, Silver Streak,
The truth of Sunshine as you call it lasts but half the day,
And continual rain caused Noah a few problems.
I believe you wish to see only one side of the coin,
Perhaps afraid to flip it over, there’s nothing wrong with that,
Just think of me as showing you that other side.
It’s what I do, thanks for taking the time to read and comment.

Thank you, Strbbux,
Pleased you liked this, that which I know and attempt to express
