The cradle of despair. <br />The ever-winter air. <br />Is anybody there, <br />Beneath this dreadful moon <br />Evoking thirst for tears? <br />I'm screaming - no one hears. <br />I breathe the same old fear <br />That I'll be dying soon. <br />My soul strays and hovers, <br />My heart is under covers, <br />My lonely secret lovers - <br />The clouds and the sea - <br />Can grant me no salvation <br />Within my heart's temptation <br />In this dilapidation <br />I see no way to flee.<br /><br />April Avalon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alien-14/
