Days of past have spawned their shadows of doubt
Forming future broke hollow bridges
Eyes that rolled -while others turn away
Torches lit –stones thrown
Bringing unwanted burns
Forged smiles
Stacking on life’s young fragile tiles
Days spiral
Serpents slither intertwining -twisting shades of gray haze
Stars fade away
As you look, hope and dream for a sunny spring day
Empty eyes casting spells of day’s illusions
As darkness crawls
Recalling shallow whispers
Silently walking through sorrow’s lane
Passing Cake Battered Avenue
Ashamed, beaten, bruised alive
Headed for sanctuaries path
Covered by tainted souls
Shadows crying unwanted lies
Dim lights glow as you shower
In hopes of days soot vanishes
Swilling down the careless pit that hisses without a kiss

Thank you Sarthak, I had a feeling the first part might have been a bit weak. Win some lose some. Lol!
