Empty handed

Poem Artwork

I dove into the deepest ocean
blue walls, eterneties of woe 

I drove into the thickest wall
chrashing to burn, yet arisen 

The prize out of sight, no hope
blindfolded dreams, into black

The waves drew me in, faster
mute screams, deafening me

Out of sight, not out of mind
brick walls in between both

Quench this flame right now
before it kills me to the death

The death where all go insane
at least once in our short lifes'

When our dreams frayed, failed
and we find ourselfes empty handed
