  Betrayal
an almost acrtic term
  to turn things of beauty
to wilting leaves    never to be
nor to bloom      wasted
on one night the temperature dropped in spite
   a garden turn hideous
a ghastly sight of rotting and partially dead lifeforms
    struggling to reach the light
   to feel warmth instead of cold dreary despair
The vast world of trust and brotherhood
   set ablaze in an instant
spreading like a viral disaster
   Engulfing everything that stood for anything
        the sacred     destroyed
For what purpose?   What gain?
I curse this damned place    and this life
    the reflection of location sets my soul on fire
to be in a black void of such ignorance
   to fight in the name of good near alone
   Facing the unspeakable     with scattered ranks
Facing the realities      and the demons
   reaching for good
       in an eternal struggle for absolution

This is one of the best poems I've read on here in a long time.
Im in love with it, especially the imagery. Wow.
Definetly going in the library.
Thanks for sharing.

If I could fall asleep tonight
you know I’d dream of you
and wake up wondering
why my heart is so cold

I think it goes good with your picture. Like you know something is supposed to go a little differently than it is and there is so much confusion that you're not sure what to do. The answer is trust God, shut your eyes, and let go of the steering wheel... it will all be fine.

So what if my wings are too scratched, cut, and beat up to fly... I'll walk.

Life is a torment and torment an enigma. So burn the shackles of slavery and let love run free
