Hopeless

Wandering with no place to go

Trudging along cold nipping at your toes

A barren landscape meets the eye

Alas with nothing in sight

No warmth no shelter

Pulling your rags close

You try to keep the heat inside

Frost clings to your hair

The wind howls in pain

A shriek so piercing that

It could shatter your very soul

Finally you sit upon a cliff

Watching the snow drift

Lights can be seen from this distance

If only you hadn't give up

Then perhaps you could've made it

Tears freeze to your face

Your body is so numb

But yet you stand

You close your eyes

And spread your arms out wide

The wind whips at your face for one last time

Taking a final breath you step forward

Now to the edge you lean

Gravity takes hold 

And your spirit soars

No more cold

No more pain

Only the heavenly light that remains

Blood pours from your skull

And what can be seen

Is a grim smile upon your face
