frozen in damnations line

By frost bite

standing powerless
motion passes me by
dust clouds blow through my body
staring at this moment
collapsing, seizing, awakening

Others saw the light change
a glimpse of what was never done
I waited without eyes
blinded
standing
smiling

hollowness engulfing my stomache
to a pit of seeds deep within
this pain never receeds outward
motionless and alone it sits

A dark pharoe responded with a call
'nobodies hope fades forever'

but ever fading did I feal
but unable to control that emotion
stuck wallowing in nothingness
no pain even to show

Too scared to stare
but couldn't look away
the brilliance captured
in veins it spread

a pattern forms scortching the bodies around
they show no dignity
pride burst upon the cement
a puddle of black cotton
incinerating before their eyes

without any fealing remaining
i too began to bleed
{Began it had}
(stop it I could not)

-still standing awaiting you-

a twighlights flash
deafend by our souls

Through sand and dust
a polar chill
uniform ID markings
cascade
in a swirl, rising
to plumet onto me, into me

Hopper of grain stood full
but it crashes, spilling
it's outer shell
now to them they can touch
but ours it was not

yearning to break free from fates cruel end
so hard to fight imagery
standing emotionless
burning
lifeless
alone
starved
sick
visions fading......

_a moment this is
stuck in the whole of time
you saw it leave
a soliloquy of mine
I couldn't even turn

froze in damnations line
