Left Behind (and 3 AM)

Poems

By Kaloriinn MasonPublished 8 years ago 1 min read

Songs and storms

shattered glass

broken homes

operatic echoes

screaming voices

on the wind

a simple verse

of empty sin

torn pictures

litter barren halls

faded grey

memories

without color

walked away

over ashes

night and day

footsteps

in the past

where I left

my heart

to lay

3 AM:

It was 3 AM when my story ended

out alone on the street

ebony of night the bars were closed

shadows seeping into my veins

clothes and stains

hidden little pains

learning to pretend

learning to smile

learning to lie

Standing in the dark

where the body lay

forgetting the day

walking away

from what was my life

into eternity

never asking why

forgetting how

the day I died

sad poetry

I have been writing for years.. I don't have much posted here, considering everything I have or have lost over time. I have been writing songs and turning old works into music lately
