Wasteland

It's where the good ideas have gone,
where everything I never put to paper hides.
It's where missed opportunities pave roads,
where fugue steals years and youth alike.
It's where dreams go to die,
where sparks drown in mire,
and where all the what-ifs scream...
but here...
it's oh-so-quiet here.
