Crushed

In this muddled mess, I stand
This is a lonely place, one filled
With shattered glass and
Empty walls,
Crumpled papers blow
Cold metal stairs
Lead to a hidden room
Filled with unspeakable
things
Outside
Beauty sings, and windows
Shine brilliantly like polished silver
Blooming trees grow abundantly
But, a picturesque cobblestone path
leads to
Darkness and thickening gloom
The beauty falls away
And there is nothing left
Expect the truth
Which isn’t much

  3. i think it's wonderfully 60's esk, with it's detachment from logic and reason while still retaining it's reality. good work. :)

  4. i love the ending to this.. you did a good job of seperating the spaces and making the reader see each one.
