Jade To Black

Only a shadow of a broken dream
                    still whispering to an Angel's ghost

another comic book crucifixtion scheduled
                    though it's me They want the most

I find it amusing that you're here now
                    after the chaotic control you once had then

all the realms of the mind lose their borders
                    it's just a matter of how and when

the laws of this world have failed me constant
                    on checkered board - Queen to Knight attack

almost put back in the box for good
                    just close my heart and jade to black

the old ' What-ifs' come to my fading focus
                    as new possibilities paw at a flickering flame

I tried to capture the essence of a single one
                    but I couldn't recall my original name

seeking asylum in my last state of grace
                    another dungeon so dark and dank

I've already offered my right hand apology
                    but there's no one left inside you to thank
