My Sunset

101 22 13
                                    

How I long to break free from the mould I have been set in.

Whispering and muttering nothingness, my heart has been captured within.

The paint brush has dried and the paint is peeling off my dreams.

I long to be just anybody but me.

The river has run dry and the thirst has gone away.

No longer do I need to answer questions, no longer do I need to pray.

The sunrise is no longer magnificent; it no longer promises rain.

I am left with my empty shadows and the ever enduring pain.

I am now looking for reasons; I am looking for an exit.

I would reach out for my existence or finally reach out for my sunset.
