The Man Who Lost It All

His shoulders, heavy.
His hands, numb.
His words, unspoken.
His expression, glum.

His life, lifeless.
His visions, blurred.
His thoughts, empty.
His speech, slurred.

His bottle, full.
His emotions, empty.
His eyes, dull.
His sadness, plenty.

His family, gone.
His friends, none.
His job, done.
His life, unstrung.

Broke Up

Pull me out this downward spiral, I’m falling away, slipping and sliding, I don’t feel like I’m in my place, The truths inside but won’t show its face.

Empty

My lonely heart cries out but no one seems to hear. I fear my life's pain and sorrow has become to much to bare. Why should I pick up these pieces of my life that have never fitted together.
