Like a waterfall
crashing down
a never-ending stream
of tears

a hollowed chest
where once
a heart beat stood
hangs a vacated sign

love is all he sought
someone
to hold him
tell him all will be alright

a woman
of any description
to speak tender
words

an angel
wings so black
cold running
through his veins now

voices
whisper within
his broken mind
such bad words

crimson
seeps from wounds
so he can
feel again

emotions
intensified to insanity
driven by actions
of the few

all lost
hope and belief
extinguished forever
to loneliness

a Phoenix
from the ashes
he rises
darkness within

a burrowed hole
beneath the world
he hides
till called upon to bring pain
