as if the world were to betray my dreams

By LiP Stiches

clouds surround
and suffocate communication

words dissolve and sting
as they drizzle
so intently

only
tears of fear
can soothe



piercing stares
and vacant phrases

provoke despair
to dig deeper
ripping the soul
in two



hopeless
and worry - eyed

colors
has been raped
into a dull
shade of grey



will this dream
be beaten
and faded?
