For some, 2020 was not the worst year... |
Winter winds howl as the old engine growls Black skies abound, darkness surrounds Elevators rise as the nurses try Family arrangements and funeral affairs Whether she lives or dies, they cannot say The soft glow of a cab light is the only comfort tonight "The dawn will come," they say The dawn never came. Screaming matches and broken houses Another moment and another move Boxes stack like the promises of a better life Yawning roads and phantom homes To be damned is to drive this road "The dawn will come," they say The dawn never came. Icy winds blow as demons show Painful images numb the brain Whether I live or die, I do not care I go as the music goes To dance with my demons is not my choice. "The dawn will come," they say. The dawn never came. A warm office provides promise Cheery faces hide dead eyes A new life offered, only a few signatures required I go now, eager to start anew Abandoned animals and abandoned lives left behind "The dawn has come," they said As the plane soars I snore I awake to darkness Winter ice and demon cries fill another night. The dawn never came, and there is no one to blame I trade one night for the next |
