Black, <br />shades of trees. <br />Lies.....pain, <br />anger, deciet. <br />All tell, <br />stories of life. <br />Looking deep, <br />in brown eyes of gold, <br />I, <br />I, <br />I see the lies that were told. <br />All the pain, <br />saddness, <br />heartless tears. <br />Birds of song..... <br />wondering years. <br />Struggles of survival, <br />leading to... <br />Jack Daniels. <br />Paths, <br />we walk alone. <br />Schnapps, <br />My pepermint home! <br />Breaths, <br />acid stole. <br />Time dull as bone. <br />Why, <br />do these hearts never forget. <br />Such pain, <br />anger, <br />loves debt? <br />An aching wonder, <br />in my empty heart and head. <br />Why are such feelings cold? <br />Like.... <br />islolated, <br />fingers, <br />they grab at my bones. <br />As i lay back, <br />from this frenzied trip... <br />I, <br />he, <br />we........finaly, <br />realize, <br />our deaths, <br />were shadowed in sleep.<br /><br />Heather Kemper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/eyes-of-shadowed-sleep/
