I lost it all when my mind cleared
the dreams I had, the need to live.
To learn the beauties of this world
caress the body, cherish the soul.
Complete ignorance, all I felt
when I questioned what was left.
A playground I can’t remember
those bright smiles that left forever…
Now, I look at my fine art,
memento of an old heart
growing rusty, growing cold.
Did I ever believe in hope?
