Contrasting Expectation

Transparent Blanket

Labored breathing

Light head

Heavy eyes

Cannot see past life's lies

A warm blanket covers your soul

One to deaden the untold

Feelings of want

Feelings of dreams

Feelings that are crushed; ripped from the seams

A lie

Where have you been?

What did you do?

We all see none of this is true

Sparkling glints of a person once you

Reclaim your fire

Reclaim your might

Reclaim the vision of a life once in your sight

But, you don't care for much anymore

All you need is that transparent blanket

I hope it keeps you warm on a cold, merciless winter night
