The sun stopped shining <br />Two blocks down, <br />Three stories high <br />Where Silence suffocates thier cries <br /> <br />Vacancy <br />Not just a literal thing <br />Abandoned where life started <br />Take a stroll down the street <br />You'll see where hope departed <br /> <br />Between an L and K <br />And an MLD <br />Take a wild guess <br />Where that leaves us three <br /> <br />Bang! <br /> <br />You feel that chill up your spine? <br />Maybe next in line <br />Empty walls, yellow and pale <br />Froze in time, fifty years reflection, <br />And they offer absolutly no protection <br /> <br />Crack! <br /> <br />A steel blow to the spinal cord <br />Slain with a slugger, not a sword <br />Close your eyes and the shutter <br />Move west and cross your fingers, <br />That isn't your son <br />Killing time in the gutter.<br /><br />Come Undone<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/208-south/
