Poem: Silhouette

Another victim to the soulless
take a moment to breathe it in
Another victor for the heartless
stealing breathe, a moment within

Light spills all around me
coating the void from where I lay
Warmth overtakes the other
piercing the plight of this foray

Lifeless and without passion
my hands begin to rise
hollow is the mask
hollow too, are the cries

This is the world I’ve known
the one before the day
This is the world of which I’ve grown
a world of disarray

I come not from happy
nor do I come from love
I travel not from peace
nor am I exempt from earthen glove

I come into this light
to join in your set
for the hope I now feel
becomes your silhouette
