Alan Garfoot- A Poem


Tormented Skies

Locked inside a caged beast, 
Tragic heart of fractured beat, 
Wont see no rest or have no peace, 
A being of lies, forgotten woe and defeat. 
  
Hope was lost a winter ago, 
The sting of self inflicted marks, 
Bleeding out into the snow, 
Tormented skies of a broken heart. 
  
Savor the void of a darkened rapture, 
Feel the darkness within your soul, 
Savage feelings and needy distractions, 
A torn self which will never be whole. 
  
As silent as the soul destroyer, 
Wretched lost and so afraid, 
A telling sign you shall never recover, 
The debt is due the mark was made.
