Bitter

He asked me a question and
I froze with fear and sadness
For I didn't know the answer
And my heart saw
Walls of thin foundations
Torn to the core and
Cast aside
And away we went
To a deep red sunrise
That burns my skin
To the song of a new day

I never wanted
Reality to set in
I always hoped for
A hopeful dream instead
But here I see
A senile grayness
Molding and cracking
The edges of flowers
Bittering water
That used to taste sweet
And shattering dreams
I held to as mirrors
Yet now my face
Is unfamiliar
And without these wishes
I don't know who I am.
